I'm trying to use spring rest template to do a post request to login in.
RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate();
HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
headers.setContentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_FORM_URLENCODED);
LinkedMultiValueMap<String, Object> mvm = new LinkedMultiValueMap<String, Object>();
mvm.add("LoginForm_Login", "login");
mvm.add("LoginForm_Password", "password");
ResponseEntity<String> result = restTemplate.exchange(uriDWLogin, HttpMethod.POST, requestEntity, String.class);
My ResponseEntity status is 302, i want to follow this request to get the body response , because i didn't get the body for this request.
18:59:59.170 MAIN [http-nio-8080-exec-83] DEBUG c.d.s.c.DemandwareCtlr - loginToSandbox - StatusResponse - 302
18:59:59.170 MAIN [http-nio-8080-exec-83] DEBUG c.d.s.c.DemandwareCtlr - loginToSandbox - BodyResponse -
What can I do to solve this problem ?!
The redirection is followed automatically if the request is a GET request (see this answer). To make it happen on POST requests, one option might be to use a different request factory, like HttpComponentsClientHttpRequestFactory, and set it to use an HttpClient with the required settings to follow the redirect (see LaxRedirectStrategy):
final RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate();
final HttpComponentsClientHttpRequestFactory factory = new HttpComponentsClientHttpRequestFactory();
final HttpClient httpClient = HttpClientBuilder.create()
.setRedirectStrategy(new LaxRedirectStrategy())
.build();
factory.setHttpClient(httpClient);
restTemplate.setRequestFactory(factory);
I haven't tested, but this should work.

I tried to call oauth 2 using Spring RestTemplate but ended up with this error 404 Not Found: [{"message":"no Route matched with those values"}]
below is my code .OauthRequest is class created by me .
String oauthurl = serverurl + GET_TOKEN;
HttpHeaders headers = buildHeader();
OauthRequest oathRequest = new OauthRequest();
oathRequest.setClient_id(clientid);
oathRequest.setClient_secret(clientsecret);
oathRequest.setAuthenticated_userid(usercode);
oathRequest.setScope(scope);
oathRequest.setGrant_type(grantTypePassword);
oathRequest.setProvision_key(key);
headers.setContentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON);
headers.set("Host", hostname);
headers.set("Accept-Version", "1.0");
headers.set("Content-Length", MAX_TRANSFER_SIZE);
HttpEntity<OauthRequest> requestEntity = new HttpEntity<>(oathRequest, headers);
ResponseEntity<OauthResponse> result = restTemplate.exchange(oauthurl, HttpMethod.POST, requestEntity,
OauthResponse.class);
return result.getBody();
Is there any limitation on calling from RestTemplate rather than using OAuth2RestTemplate .My understanding is it will be achievable using RestTemplate also.Must i use OAuth2RestTemplate ?Any help?
RestTemplate does not set hostname in
headers.set("Host", hostname);
Adding below it worked
System.setProperty("sun.net.http.allowRestrictedHeaders", "true");
Postman request
As mentioned in image I would like to send content-type as application/json for a particular part of a multipart request in springboot application.
use MultipartBodyBuilder to build your request.
HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
headers.setContentType(MediaType.MULTIPART_FORM_DATA);
headers.add("add custome header", "header value");
MultipartBodyBuilder builder = new MultipartBodyBuilder();
builder.part("json_part", "").header("Content-Type", "application/json");
MultiValueMap<String, HttpEntity<?>> body = builder.build();
HttpEntity<MultiValueMap<String, Object>> requestEntity = new HttpEntity(body,
headers);
RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplateBuilder().build();
ResponseEntity<String> postResponse = restTemplate
.postForEntity("yoururl", requestEntity, String.class);
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?
I have following code where I am making a POST form request. The request body contains username and password. Password contains # characters, which is replaced by RestTemplate with %40 and I am getting "unauthorized" error as the password is wrong now.
Following is the debug info from bufferOutput(request body)
merchant_id=firstname+de-lastname%40gmail.com&password=%40Password
Here is the code snippet that is making the call.
MultiValueMap<String, String> formData = new LinkedMultiValueMap<String, String>();
String url = "SOME_URL";
formData.add("username", "xay#gmail.com");
formData.add("password", "#name321");
HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
headers.setContentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_FORM_URLENCODED);
HttpEntity<MultiValueMap<String,String>> requestEntity = new HttpEntity<MultiValueMap<String,String>>(formData,headers);
RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate();
restTemplate.getMessageConverters()
.add(0, new StringHttpMessageConverter(Charset.forName("UTF-8")));
restTemplate.exchange(url, HttpMethod.POST, requestEntity, Authentication.class,"321");
The question is how to tell restTemplate not to escape body data ?
Note that the request has to be a post form request and I can not use UriComponentsBuilder to fix the problem.
I think you need to add a FormHttpMessageConverter to your RestTemplate rather than a StringHttpMessageConverter.
How can I send a GET request using the Spring RestTemplate?
Other questions have used POST, but I need to use GET.
When I run this, the program continues to work, but it seems that the network is clogged because this is in an AsyncTask, and when I try to run another asynctask after I click on the button for this one, they won't work.
I tried doing
String url = "https://api.blah.com/2.0/search/cubes?w=jdfkl&whitespace=1";
MultiValueMap<String, String> map = new LinkedMultiValueMap<String, String>();
map.add("Bearer", accessToken);
HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
headers.setContentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_FORM_URLENCODED); //copied this from somewhere else, not sure what its for
HttpEntity<MultiValueMap<String, String>> request = new HttpEntity<MultiValueMap<String, String>>(map, headers);
HttpMessageConverter<String> stringConverter = new StringHttpMessageConverter();
FormHttpMessageConverter formConverter = new FormHttpMessageConverter();
List<HttpMessageConverter<?>> msgConverters = new ArrayList<HttpMessageConverter<?>>();
msgConverters.add(formConverter);
msgConverters.add(new MappingJacksonHttpMessageConverter());
msgConverters.add(stringConverter);
template.setMessageConverters(msgConverters);
//SetSearchResponseData is my custom class to store the incoming JSON
ResponseEntity<SetSearchResponseData> result = template.exchange(url, HttpMethod.GET, request, SetSearchResponseData.class);
//If I was using post, i could have done SetSearchResponseDataresponse = restTemplate.postForObject(url, request, SetSearchResponseData.class);
The RestTemplate getForObject() method does not support setting headers. The solution is to use the exchange() method.
So instead of restTemplate.getForObject(url, String.class, param) (which has no headers), use
HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
headers.set("Header", "value");
headers.set("Other-Header", "othervalue");
...
HttpEntity<Void> requestEntity = new HttpEntity<>(headers);
ResponseEntity<String> response = restTemplate.exchange(
url, HttpMethod.GET, requestEntity, String.class, param);
Finally, use response.getBody() to get your result.
This question is similar to this question.
Take a look at the JavaDoc for RestTemplate.
There is the corresponding getForObject methods that are the HTTP GET equivalents of postForObject, but they doesn't appear to fulfil your requirements of "GET with headers", as there is no way to specify headers on any of the calls.
Looking at the JavaDoc, no method that is HTTP GET specific allows you to also provide header information. There are alternatives though, one of which you have found and are using. The exchange methods allow you to provide an HttpEntity object representing the details of the request (including headers). The execute methods allow you to specify a RequestCallback from which you can add the headers upon its invocation.
The getForObject() method of RestTemplate does not support setting headers. you can use this
syntax:
restTemplate.exchange(url endpoint,
HttpMethod.GET,entity, params)
public List<Employee> getListofEmployee()
{
HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
headers.setAccept(Arrays.asList(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON));
HttpEntity<String> entity = new HttpEntity<String>(headers);
ResponseEntity<List<Employee>> response = restTemplate.exchange("http://hello-server/rest/employees",
HttpMethod.GET,entity, new ParameterizedTypeReference<List<Employee>>() {});
return response.getBody(); //this returns List of Employee
}
