public class HttpclassgetrRoles {
     static void main(String[] args){
         def baseUrl = new URL('http://test.city.com/api/Cirtxyz/GetUser')

         HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) baseUrl.openConnection();
         connection.addRequestProperty("Accept", "application/json")
         connection.with {
           doOutput = true
           requestMethod = 'GET'
           println content.text
         }

     }
