Get raw HTTP response with Retrofit

Question

I want to get the raw http response from my API REST. I have tried with this interface:

@POST(\"/login\")
@FormUrlEncoded
Call login         


        

Answer 1

To get access to the raw response, use ResponseBody from okhttp as your call type.

Call login(...)

In your callback, you can check the response code with the code method of the response. This applies to any retrofit 2 return type, because your callback always gets a Response parameterized with your actual return type. For asynchronous --

Call myCall = myApi.login(...)
myCall.enqueue(new Callback() {
    @Override
    public void onResponse(Response response, Retrofit retrofit) {
        // access response code with response.code()
        // access string of the response with response.body().string()
    }

    @Override
    public void onFailure(Throwable t) {
        t.printStackTrace();
    }
});

for synchronous calls --

Response response = myCall.execute();
System.out.println("response code" + response.code());
