Though am new to spring-mvc rest the concept looks clear in this code below. But I get the below mentioned exception which I have put after the code that is getting thrown :
@RestController
@RequestMapping("/relationship")
public class RelationshipEndpoint {
private static final Logger LOG = LoggerFactory.getLogger(RelationshipEndpoint.class);
@Autowired
private IRelationshipService relationshipService;
@PostMapping(name = ResourcePathConstants.RELATIONSHIP_LIST)
@ResponseBody
public ResponseEntity<ServiceResponse> getListofRelationships(final HttpServletRequest httpRequest,
@RequestBody @Valid RelationshipRequest request) {
ServiceResponse result = true ? getResult(HrcaRelationshipListResponse.class, JsonConstants.RelationshipListResponse)
: relationshipService.getListofRelationships(null);
return prepareResponse(result);
}
@PostMapping(name = ResourcePathConstants.RELATIONSHIP_INFO)
@ResponseBody
public ResponseEntity<ServiceResponse> getRelationshipInfo(final HttpServletRequest httpRequest,
@RequestBody @Valid RelationshipIdRequest request) {
ServiceResponse result = relationshipService.getRelationshipInfo(request);
return prepareResponse(result);
}}
The exception below talk about ambiguity in resource which looks incorrect. kindly suggest.

Two methods for POST request. That is the problem. Try to add path attribute to remove the ambiguity.
@PostMapping(name = ResourcePathConstants.RELATIONSHIP_LIST, path = {"/all"})
@ResponseBody
public ResponseEntity<ServiceResponse> getListofRelationships(final HttpServletRequest httpRequest,
@RequestBody @Valid RelationshipRequest request) {
ServiceResponse result = true ? getResult(HrcaRelationshipListResponse.class, JsonConstants.RelationshipListResponse)
: relationshipService.getListofRelationships(null);
return prepareResponse(result);
}
@PostMapping(name = ResourcePathConstants.RELATIONSHIP_INFO, path = {"/info"})
@ResponseBody
public ResponseEntity<ServiceResponse> getRelationshipInfo(final HttpServletRequest httpRequest,
@RequestBody @Valid RelationshipIdRequest request) {
ServiceResponse result = relationshipService.getRelationshipInfo(request);
return prepareResponse(result);
}
Because when you call POST /relationship Spring does not know which method to call (as you have 2).
And once you fix this you should call them like /relationship/all and /relationship/info or something like that.
