I am trying to use Spring RestTemplateBuilder to call a REST web service and POST data. Here is the sample of my code.
public HttpHeaders getHttpHeaders() {
HttpHeaders requestHeaders = new HttpHeaders();
requestHeaders.add("Authorization", "Basic " + authToken);
requestHeaders.add("Content-Type", "application/json");
return requestHeaders;
}
public ResponseJson getData(RequestJson requestJson) {
HttpEntity<RequestJson> entity = new HttpEntity<>(requestJson, getHttpHeaders());
ResponseEntity<ResponseJson> result = restTemplateBuilder.build().postForEntity(PostUrl, entity, ResponseJson.class);
}
When I debug this, it gives status=307 and body=null for ResponseEntity. But when I call the PostUrl directly with a request body, it creates data with 201 status code.
May I know how, to figure out this 307 status and why I am getting null response ?
This works for me, using HttpComponentsClientHttpRequestFactory https://lateralcoding.blogspot.com/2018/03/Spring-RestTemplate-AutoRedirect.html

I have an API (/get-sas-token) that is returning a response with Content-Type=text/plain;charset=UTF-8.
In Postman when I hit this API it returns as sig=PAd%2By7yzue0G%2FVeMKbwvR%2F%2B5a3X8CUTablCIhS3uCuk%3D&s
The code for this API is
#GetMapping("/get-sas-token/{containerName}")
public String getSASToken(#PathVariable("containerName") String containerName)
throws InvalidKeyException, URISyntaxException, StorageException {
CloudBlobContainer appcontainer = config.blobClient().getContainerReference(containerName);
return appConfiguration.generateSASToken(appcontainer);
}
My other microservice is trying to call this RestAPI using RestTemplate via a get request. The response I'm getting in Postman has instead of special characters like �������{J�J��t�\b�`$ؐ#������iG# some weird stuff. So I guess somethings wrong with the character encoding.
P.S : If I remove the Accept-Encoding(gzip, deflate, br) header from Postman it works.How can i get it working in my code
ResponseEntity<String> imageUrl = restTemplate.exchange(
fileServiceUrl + "/get-sas-token/" + containerReference, HttpMethod.GET, request, String.class);
logger.info("imageUrl body-------->>" + imageUrl.getBody());
It prints
imageUrl body-------->>?`I?%&/m?{J..................
I have tried all the possible soultions but nothing works for me
tried this::
template.getMessageConverters()
.add(0, new StringHttpMessageConverter(Charset.forName("UTF-8")));
ResponseEntity<Object> response = template.exchange(endpoint, method, entity,
Object.class);
Also this::
HttpHeaders httpHeaders = new HttpHeaders();
httpHeaders.set("Accept", "application/json");
I have the following WS i request from post man with the following parameters:
and i have the following from the postman console
I am trying to request the WS with the following piece of code :
logger.info("generating new token from "+URL);
expritation = new Date();
HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
headers.setContentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON);
MultiValueMap<String, String> map= new LinkedMultiValueMap<>();
map.add("userUid", userUid);
map.add("appUid", appUid);
map.add("ttl", ttl);
restTemplate.getInterceptors().add(new BasicAuthorizationInterceptor(WsLogin, WsPassword));
ResponseEntity<String> response = restTemplate.postForEntity(URL, map , String.class);
return response.getBody();
I am able to see the response body in postman but the response.getBody() is emty in the java code.
Can someone explain to me why it is the case.
You mean you are seeing the response body in the Postman but not in your prog? Did you try to debug of print the response value before returning from the method?
I am accessing Acumatica API using Java Spring Resttemplate. The POST call to the Login endpoint works fine. But the next call to get StockItems gets a 401 Unauthorized error.
org.springframework.web.client.HttpClientErrorException: 401 Unauthorized at org.springframework.web.client.DefaultResponseErrorHandler.handleError(DefaultResponseErrorHandler.java:91) at org.springframework.web.client.RestTemplate.handleResponseError(RestTemplate.java:615) at org.springframework.web.client.RestTemplate.doExecute(RestTemplate.java:573) at org.springframework.web.client.RestTemplate.execute(RestTemplate.java:544) at org.springframework.web.client.RestTemplate.exchange(RestTemplate.java:465) at
Now this works fine when I use Postman and the Chrome Restlet client. I noticed that in Restlet client the GET call to the API passes a session cookie that was set by the API in the login call. I tried passing the response headers from the login call in the GET request. But I still get a 401. I am using the standard resttemplate configuration.
HttpEntity<Credentials> entity = new HttpEntity<Credentials>(credentials, headers);
ResponseEntity<String> response = restTemplate.exchange("https://xxxx.acumatica.com/entity/auth/login",
HttpMethod.POST, entity, String.class);
HttpHeaders rHeaders = response.getHeaders();
String set_cookie = rHeaders.getFirst(rHeaders.SET_COOKIE);
if (LOG.isInfoEnabled()) { LOG.info("Response: " + response.toString()); }
if (LOG.isInfoEnabled()) { LOG.info("Set-Cookie: " + set_cookie); }
HttpEntity<String> entity2 = new HttpEntity<String>(response.getHeaders());
ResponseEntity<String> response2 = restTemplate.exchange("https://usell.acumatica.com/entity/Default/6.00.001/StockItem?$expand=Attributes,WarehouseDetails", HttpMethod.GET, entity2, String.class);
How did Acumatica API client using Java get around this problem?
I was not setting all the cookies.. this is all I had to do
List<String> cookies = response.getHeaders().get(HttpHeaders.SET_COOKIE);
HttpHeaders requestHeaders = new HttpHeaders();
for (String cookie : cookies) {
requestHeaders.add("Cookie", cookie);
}
while i am executing below code i am getting error like
"org.springframework.web.client.HttpClientErrorException: 400 null".
but when i use postman to call this "http://localhost:2018/test" it is working.
static final String URL_EMPLOYEES = "http://localhost:2018/test";
HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
headers.setAccept(Arrays.asList(new MediaType[] {
MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON}));
// Request to return XML format
headers.setContentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON);
headers.set("replyMsg", "str");
// HttpEntity<Employee[]>: To get result as Employee[].
HttpEntity<String> entity = new HttpEntity<String>(headers);
// RestTemplate
RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate();
// Send request with GET method, and Headers.
ResponseEntity<String> response =
restTemplate.exchange(URL_EMPLOYEES,
HttpMethod.POST, entity,String.class);
HttpStatus statusCode = response.getStatusCode();
// Status Code: 200
if (statusCode == HttpStatus.OK) {
// Response Body Data
msg=response.getBody();
if (msg != null) {
System.out.println(msg);
}
}
//my clint controller class
#RestController
public class TextController {
#RequestMapping(value="/test",method = RequestMethod.POST)
public String myData2(#RequestBody String payload) {
return "done";
}
}
any suggetions?
If you're using Jackson as your JSON parser, you can simply declare your parameter with the type TextNode. This is the Jackson type representing JSON strings.
public String updateName(#PathVariable(MY_ID) String myId, #RequestBody TextNode name) {
You can then use its asText method to retrieve its text value.
Here you are setting headers Content-Type with type JSON and passing the body of type text/String.
headers.setContentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON); //setting your Content type as JSON.
So, First you need to change this to
headers.setContentType(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN); //setting your Content type as Pure Text String.
and add some code after this line
// HttpEntity<Employee[]>: To get result as Employee[].
HttpEntity<String> entity = new HttpEntity<String>(headers);
add this code
// HttpEntity<Employee[]>: To get result as Employee[].
HttpEntity<String> entity = new HttpEntity<String>(headers);
// RestTemplate
RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate();
// Send request with GET method, and Headers.
String entity_Str = new ObjectMapper().writeValueAsString(entity);
ResponseEntity<String> response =
restTemplate.exchange(URL_EMPLOYEES,
HttpMethod.POST, entity_Str, String.class);
This might work for you.. Thanks :)
Background
I am trying to consume a REST endpoint hosted on IBM Cloud API from my SpringBoot application using RestTemplate. I am using the following snippet to make the call:
RestTemplate send = new RestTemplate();
HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
headers.setAccept(Collections.singletonList(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON));
headers.setContentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON);
headers.setCacheControl(CacheControl.noCache());
headers.set("x-ibm-client-id", clientId);
headers.set("x-ibm-client-secret", clientSecret);
HttpEntity<BodyEntity> httpEntity = new HttpEntity<>(bodyEntity, headers);
send.exchange(ENDPOINT_URL, HttpMethod.POST, httpEntity, Object.class);
I used the following snippet to configure RestTemplate
#Bean
public RestTemplate restTemplate(RestTemplateBuilder builder) {
return builder.build();
}
Problem
Using this snippet, when the call is made I receive 401 Unauthorized. When I made the same call using Postman, I received correct response from server without any problem.
Since I received 401 response code I set to further investigate the request by logging headers and body and other parts of request.
I implemented ClientHttpRequestInterceptor to log outgoing requests to further debug the issue and added this interceptor to my RestTemplate config as follows:
#Bean
public RestTemplate restTemplate(RestTemplateBuilder builder) {
// new code
builder.interceptors(new LoggingClientHttpRequestInterceptor());
return builder.build();
}
After making the request again, I could see in the log that the outgoing call contained all details as it should e.g. Headers and Body were correct.
After this, I changed the whole thing to use Apache HTTP Client as follows:
CloseableHttpClient httpClient = HttpClients.createDefault();
HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost(URL);
String reqString = "BODY";
httpPost.setEntity(new StringEntity(reqString, ContentType.APPLICATION_JSON));
httpPost.setHeader("accept", "application/json");
httpPost.setHeader("content-type", "application/json");
httpPost.setHeader("cache-control", "no-cache");
httpPost.setHeader("x-ibm-client-id", clientId);
httpPost.setHeader("x-ibm-client-secret", clientSecret);
CloseableHttpResponse response = httpClient.execute(httpPost);
try {
System.out.println("Response status: " + response.getStatusLine());
HttpEntity entity1 = response.getEntity();
System.out.println("Response :" + entity1.toString());
} finally {
response.close();
}
Using the snippet above, I executed the request and received correct response.
Question
Why RestTemplate call returns and error whereas HttpClient returns correct response?
Do I need to further configure RestTemplate?
What have I missed?
