org.springframework.web.client.HttpClientErrorException: 400 Bad Request


I'm using spring boot. I have a rest api POST call that I need to send the body using x-www-form-urlencoded, there are no headers needed for the call. I can hit this url from postman and a row is created successfully in db. But when I try to call this from Java side I'm getting a 400 bad request exception.

Below is what I tried in Java.

MultiValueMap<String, String> map = new LinkedMultiValueMap<String, String>();
        map.add("param1", "123");
        map.add("param2", "456");
        map.add("param3", "789");
        map.add("param4", "123");
        map.add("param5", "456");

    HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
    final HttpEntity<MultiValueMap<String, String>> entity = new HttpEntity<MultiValueMap<String, String>>(map,
                headers);

        try {
            RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate();
            String response = restTemplate.postForObject(
                    "https://url", entity,
                    String.class);

            System.out.println(response);
        } catch (final Exception e) {
            throw new RuntimeException();
        }

I'm getting this exception.

org.springframework.web.client.HttpClientErrorException: 400 Bad Request

I also tried like below and got the same exception.

ResponseEntity<String> x = restTemplate.exchange("https://url", HttpMethod.POST,
                    map, String.class);

Here's the full stacktrace

How do I fix this?


Solution

  • This is what worked for me. Issue is earlier I didn't set Content Type(header) when I used exchange method.

    MultiValueMap<String, String> map = new LinkedMultiValueMap<String, String>();
    map.add("param1", "123");
    map.add("param2", "456");
    map.add("param3", "789");
    map.add("param4", "123");
    map.add("param5", "456");
    
    HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
    headers.setContentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_FORM_URLENCODED);
    
    final HttpEntity<MultiValueMap<String, String>> entity = new HttpEntity<MultiValueMap<String, String>>(map ,
            headers);
    JSONObject jsonObject = null;
    
    try {
        RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate();
        ResponseEntity<String> responseEntity = restTemplate.exchange(
                "https://url", HttpMethod.POST, entity,
                String.class);
    
        if (responseEntity.getStatusCode() == HttpStatus.CREATED) {
            try {
                jsonObject = new JSONObject(responseEntity.getBody());
            } catch (JSONException e) {
                throw new RuntimeException("JSONException occurred");
            }
        }
      } catch (final HttpClientErrorException httpClientErrorException) {
            throw new ExternalCallBadRequestException();
      } catch (HttpServerErrorException httpServerErrorException) {
            throw new ExternalCallServerErrorException(httpServerErrorException);
      } catch (Exception exception) {
            throw new ExternalCallServerErrorException(exception);
        } 
    

    ExternalCallBadRequestException and ExternalCallServerErrorException are the custom exceptions here.

    Note: Remember HttpClientErrorException is thrown when a 4xx error is received. So if the request you send is wrong either setting header or sending wrong data, you could receive this exception.
