How to POST form data with Spring RestTemplate?

Question

I want to convert the following (working) curl snippet to a RestTemplate call:

curl -i -X POST -d \"email=first.last@example.com\" https://app.example.com/hr         


        

Answer 1

Your url String needs variable markers for the map you pass to work, like:

String url = "https://app.example.com/hr/email?{email}";

Or you could explicitly code the query params into the String to begin with and not have to pass the map at all, like:

String url = "https://app.example.com/hr/email?email=first.last@example.com";
