This is a rest template example – how to exchange with a REST web service to get a certain type of data back.
import org.springframework.core.ParameterizedTypeReference; import org.springframework.http.*; import org.springframework.web.client.RestTemplate; import java.util.List; public class RestTemplateExample { public static void main(String[] args) { RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate(); String url = "https://api.example.com/items"; // Create headers HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders(); headers.set("Authorization", "Bearer your_token_here"); headers.set("Accept", "application/json"); // Build the request entity with headers HttpEntity<String> requestEntity = new HttpEntity<>(headers); // Make the exchange call ResponseEntity<List<ItemData>> response = restTemplate.exchange( url, HttpMethod.GET, requestEntity, new ParameterizedTypeReference<List<ItemData>>() {} ); // Get the response headers HttpHeaders responseHeaders = response.getHeaders(); // Log response headers responseHeaders.forEach((key, value) -> System.out.println(key + ": " + String.join(", ", value)) ); // Get the body List<ItemData> items = response.getBody(); if (items != null) { items.forEach(System.out::println); } else { System.out.println("No items received."); } } }
