Spring boot exception: Could not proceed request. Invalid properties - spring

Question

I am getting exception while trying to retrieve data using POST request from my Spring boot app to other services using RestTemplate,
Server Code:
private final String baseUrl = "https://data-api-stg.company.com/";
private final String dataPath = "data/v1/users/";
public String getPostResponse(DataRequestModel req) {
try {
String url = baseUrl + dataPath + "me/"+ req.table + "?limit=10&changed_after=1574000100211";
RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate();
HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
headers.setAccept(Arrays.asList(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON));
headers.set("Content-Type", "application/json");
headers.set("Authorization", "Bearer " + req.token);
HttpEntity<String> entity = new HttpEntity<String>(headers);
return restTemplate.exchange(url, HttpMethod.POST, entity, String.class).getBody();
}catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace(); // exceptions here
}
return null;
}
Exception:
org.springframework.web.client.HttpClientErrorException$BadRequest: 400 : [{"code":400,"reason":"badRequest","message":"Could not proceed request. Invalid properties"}]

How to resolve it?

Answer 1

Finally, I resolved that issue by changing the http request method from POST to GET. As Valijon suggested.
