http://localhost:4502/ecat/j_security_check?j_username=abc&j_password=abc&resource=/ecat/apps/cat/injectorwebhook is the POST URL used to login to our application and land on the servlet path /ecat/apps/cat/injectorwebhook. It has a request body containing a json snippet. When i do a request.getMethod() in the servlet i get it as a GET and could not have a hold on the json from the request body. Why is it treated as a GET method? how to retrieve the body json from the request?

Hi,

To get request payload JOSN you need to read InputStream, e.g.

StringBuilder stringBuilder = new StringBuilder();

try(BufferedReader bufferedReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(request.getInputStream()))) {

char[] charBuffer = new char[1024];

int bytesRead;

while ((bytesRead = bufferedReader.read(charBuffer)) > 0) {

stringBuilder.append(charBuffer, 0, bytesRead);

}

Hi Arun. Thanks for your reply. I understand that we can use your code to extract request body from a POST call. But in my case my POST call is identified as a GET by my servlet. Now how can i get the request body?
