Cannot convert cURL request to RestTemplate - spring

Question

I want to make an HTTP Request from my server so I opened a tunnel in my port 8082 as follows:
ssh -D 8082 jscherman#myserver
This way, I can successfully do the following request from my local machine using myserver as a proxy:
madmin’s-MacBook-Pro:~ jscherman$ curl --proxy socks5://localhost:8082 -i 'http://192.168.255.142/infrastructure/query?pretty=true' --data-urlencode "db=telegraf" --data-urlencode "q=SHOW MEASUREMENTS"
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: nginx/1.12.2
Date: Thu, 04 Apr 2019 18:07:10 GMT
Content-Type: application/json
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Connection: keep-alive
Request-Id: 7762bc1a-5704-11e9-8718-000000000000
X-Influxdb-Build: OSS
X-Influxdb-Version: 1.6.4
X-Request-Id: 7762bc1a-5704-11e9-8718-000000000000
{"results":[...]}
The thing is, I can make this request work in my code. This is what I tried (I'm opened to another solution though)
SimpleClientHttpRequestFactory requestFactory = new SimpleClientHttpRequestFactory();
Proxy proxy = new Proxy(Proxy.Type.SOCKS, new InetSocketAddress("localhost", 8082));
requestFactory.setProxy(proxy);
RestTemplate template = new RestTemplate(requestFactory);
final String baseURl = "http://192.168.255.142:80/infrastructure/query?pretty=true";
final String query = "SHOW MEASUREMENTS";
HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
headers.setContentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_FORM_URLENCODED);
MultiValueMap<String, String> map= new LinkedMultiValueMap<String, String>();
map.add("db", "telegraf");
map.add("q", query);
HttpEntity<MultiValueMap<String, String>> entity = new HttpEntity<>(map, headers);
ResponseEntity<LinkedHashMap> forEntity = template.exchange(baseURl, HttpMethod.GET, entity, LinkedHashMap.class);
Then I get the following exception:
2019-04-04 14:55:09.429 DEBUG 22965 --- [nio-8080-exec-2] o.s.web.client.RestTemplate : GET request for "http://192.168.255.142:80/infrastructure/query?pretty=true" resulted in 400 (Bad Request); invoking error handler

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Response code 400 indicates, that your proxy works correctly (this is response from server). But your HttpMethod should be POST if you are sending application/x-www-form-urlencoded:
ResponseEntity<LinkedHashMap> forEntity = template.exchange(baseURl, HttpMethod.POST, entity, LinkedHashMap.class);
