1. You can use "browsermob-proxy", "LoggingPreferences", "CloseableHttpClient", "HttpURLConnection" for getting the logs
2. If you wish not to use browser and want to get the response, then I would suggest to go for "CloseableHttpClient".
3. Copy the URI ("www.somewebsite.com/v1/api/sign-in?"). Get the request payload(which will be available in that particular API URI). Pass all the parameters with "&" like this "www.somewebsite.com/v1/api/sign-in?&username=xyz&password=1234566&app_id=12123214324234134&app_secret=213242345345345" (Remember app id and app secret is very unique and do not expose it anywhere)
4. Once you get the URI, this code will give you JSON format response

            HttpPost request = new HttpPost(str);
            request.setHeader("content-type", "application/json");
            HttpResponse response = client.execute(request);
            BufferedReader bufReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
                    response.getEntity().getContent()));
            while ((line = bufReader.readLine()) != null) {
                builder=String.valueOf(line);
            }

            System.out.println(builder);
        }
