I need to send a non standard http status code (468) from my rest controller. This should be based on conditions. If all goes well, I will return ResponseEntity.ok(). I tried ResponseEntity.status(468).build(), but I am getting No matching constant for [468].
I tried several ways to modify the response, but nothing works. Tried to modify the response from controller advice, tried with interceptors and also with filter. Any help will be much appreciated.

Good morning. I am new to logic apps and I am trying to figure out how I can trigger the execution based on a GET URL with three parameters. All the examples I've found on Google show the URL being generated once the JSON and relative path is entered, but that's not happening for me. Perhaps it's because I am creating the logic app in VS.
Here's what my "When a HTTP request is received" step looks like in the logic app.
I also tried removing the JSON and just using the parameters to pass the values to the function, as shown below. I'm just not sure the best way to do this.
All I really need to do is get the three parameters into the logic app so I can perform a function call with the parameters. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Why is my HTTP request URL not being generated for a Logic App?
You need to click save, and then the url will be automatically generated for the When a HTTP request is received trigger:
You can use this expression to accept values through GET parameters:
triggerOutputs()['queries']['parameter-name']
For example:

Queries need to pass parameters in the form of json.
I want to append some data to the incoming request. Like random generated token or uuid to the incoming request. And then I want to process it through the controller. I came to know about ClientHttpRequestInterceptor. But looking at this doc, it seems like it only intercept the response, it doesn't intercept the request. Which is what I am not looking. Is there any other way to do this ?
And how can I register this intercept in my RestController ? So that before controller process the request, the request should already has the data.
EDIT:
I just found out, I can directly set the data in controller using set method in request body. And this is working. But I am not sure if this is recommended way. Because as far as I know the request has to be modified in dispatcher servlet.
Please advice.
If you don't want to do it this way (How to modify request body before reaching controller in spring boot),
you might do one of the following:
OncePerRequestFilter (as mentioned in the #doctore answer) and add a parameter to the request. This would allow you to add data to the request, but not change anything sent by the client.
Add a method in the controller and call it at the start of processing. I don't like this as much because unlike the filter approach, this requires you to call the method.
[Note: I've never tried this, but it should work] Add a method [somewhere] and use Spring AOP to call it before entering the handler method in the controller. This is fine, but is essentially just you creating your own way of processing a OncePerRequestFilter.
There are surely other ways of doing this with Spring,
I just don't know them.
You need to add your own OncePerRequestFilter implementation. In the next link you will be able to see an example of that:
Filter example
In this case, it uses TheadContext (MDC) to include the information you want to use in your controller layer (do not include "something similar" to MDC.remove(mdcTokenKey); in your code, you want to keep the information on MDC to access it in your controller).
PD: The internal server of Spring MVC: Tomcat, Jetty, etc reuses the threads so, if you don't want to have some problems it is important you include always a value in your "TheadContext cache". In that way, you will avoid to find "old values", I mean, values included in the current thread but in a "previous Http request".
UPDATE (modify the request body):
Take a look to the following link if you want to modify the request itself:
Modify request content before manage it in controller
I am using Spring Security with Spring Controllers. There are some weird requests caused by some third party browser extension ending such as undefined or weird hexadecimal numbers. I would like to configure my application to block these requests but I could not find an easy way.
I do not want to declare a empty controller for this purpose. What is the correct way to return no-content for these requests?
Edit:
Some sample requets:
/activity/favorites/undefined
/activity/favorites/my/undefined
/help/undefined
Create some servlet filter that is invoked for every request (*). That filter has to check the request URL, and if it is on of the "strangers" that return what you want, but prevent the request from being future processed.
I am trying to work out a way to provide a CSV download through a Spring 3 Portlet. I have a method that uses the #ResourceMapping annotation to define a handler that takes some report params in the form of a #ModelAttribute, builds the report, and returns it. The catch-22 I am running into is validating the parameters being send in from the client form.
If I make the handler a #ResourceMapping, I can set the headers and write out the report as using the ResourceResponse, but I can't seem to figure out how to redirect the user back to the Portlet view with errors when their input fails validation. However, if I make it an #ActionMapping, I can then check the BindingResults and forward them back to the form as needed, but the ActionResponse doesn't allow me to set the Content-Disposition header nor write out the CSV bytes, which is sort of critical for sending the report back.
I am at a total loss here, as I don't even know what my options are. Is it even possible to do what I am trying to do with a Portlet? Are there other examples I could look at for a possible work-around?
I suggest you to use both #ActionMapping and #ResourceMapping to fulfill your requirement.
As you said you were able to handle the validation errors using the #ActionResponse, I'll tell you how to handle the Resource Streaming.
As you know every #ActionResponse is followed by a #RenderResponse, just return the same view but, with a hidden iframe this time whose src points to the ResourceURL.
Now the Request you receive in #ResourceMapping is something which is already Validated. So, you can now serve your CSV.
I dont know how complex is your UI and if you are using jsp as views in your application. If nicely managed, Validation can be handled by #ResourceMapping.
Thank you
I'd like to be able to access some HTTP GET parameters directly in a JSP, without having to pass them through a Controller+Model, but at the same time still use the dispatcher/controller/model/view mechanism for other parameters and logic.
This is because I have many HTTP GET parameters that are generated by Javascript and used also only in Javascript. My Controllers don't need them at all.
I tried ${arg}, ${request.arg}, ${requestScope.arg}, nothing seems to work.
If I bypass the dispatcher, ${requestScope.arg} works.
But is there a way to make it work with the dispatcher?
Thanks!
If that's request parameters that you want to access (and not request attributes like the title says), then the syntax is ${param.parameterName}.
If it's request attributes, then it's ${requestScope.attributeName}.
