Description

DefaultExpansionServiceClientFactory is the de-facto way to get an ExpansionServiceClient to request an Expansion used by External transforms.

If we want to use this client to get an expansion in other transforms in Beam we cannot do it because even if the DefaultExpansionServiceClientFactory class is public the constructor and the objects that return are not. The idea here is to fix both so other parts of Beam can use it too.
