Passing JSON from AngularJS to Springboot RestController is not working-CodePudding

I am facing a problem with one of the project that I work. Here is the scenario.

I have Angular Springboot project, where from a HTML page, data has to be sent to Springboot Controller (restController) and does the processing. When I send a single String as input to an endpoint, it works, but when I have to send a JSON, it does not work.

Here is the sample code.

AnnotationController.js

$scope.postExample = function() {
    var annotationjson = {
        acctNo: $scope.tradeAnnotationDto.acctNo,
        tradeComment: $scope.tradeAnnotationDto.tradeComment
    };
    AnnotationService.postExample(annotationjson).then(function() {
    }, function(reason) {
        console.log("error occured");
    }, function(value) {
        console.log("no callback");
    });
}

AnnotationService.js

service.postExample = function(annotationjson) {
    alert("Post Example Click Value is "   annotationjson.acctNo   "  "   annotationjson.tradeComment); -- I see the data here.
    return $http.post(“/annotatetrade/postExample“, annotationjson);
}

AnnotationController.java (restcontroller)

@RequestMapping(value= "annotatetrade/postExample", method= RequestMethod.POST,consumes = "application/json")
public void postExample(@RequestParam TradeAnnotationRequest request){
    System.out.println("Post Example account "   request.getAcctNo());
    System.out.println("Post Example comment "   request.getTradeComment());
}

TradeAnnotationRequest.java

@Data
@NoArgsConstructor
@AllArgsConstructor
@ApiModel(value="TradeAnnotationRequest")
public class TradeAnnotationRequest {
    String acctNo ;
    String tradeComment ;
}

With @RequestParam, this is what I get. 2021-11-17 13:28:55.996 WARN 24572 --- [nio-8080-exec-2] .w.s.m.s.DefaultHandlerExceptionResolver : Resolved exception caused by Handler execution: org.springframework.web.bind.MissingServletRequestParameterException: Required TradeAnnotationRequest parameter 'request' is not present 2021-11-17 13:29:14.447 WARN 24572 --- [nio-8080-exec-5] .w.s.m.s.DefaultHandlerExceptionResolver : Resolved exception caused by Handler execution: org.springframework.web.bind.MissingServletRequestParameterException: Required TradeAnnotationRequest parameter 'request' is not present

With @RequestBody, I get nulls. For some reason, JSON data is not passed. Can anyone please help? I went through lots of posts.

Try to edit your postExample (the json body) as:

{
        "acctNo": $scope.tradeAnnotationDto.acctNo,
        "tradeComment": $scope.tradeAnnotationDto.tradeComment
}

Pay attention the quotation mark.

I have some progress. However I am still getting data null in my restcontroller. Following changes are made

        service.postExample = function(medicoRicercato) {
            alert("Post Example Click Value is "   medicoRicercato.acctNo   "  "   medicoRicercato.tradeComment);
            return $http({
                url: CONSTANTS.postExample,
                contentType: "application/json;charset=UTF-8",
                method: "POST",
                data: {medicoRicercato},
                dataType: 'json'
            });

            //return $http.post(CONSTANTS.postExample, medicoRicercato);
        }

and in my restController

  @RequestMapping(value = "/postExample", method = RequestMethod.POST, consumes = "application/json",
            headers = "content-type=application/json")
    public void postExample(@RequestBody TradeAnnotationRequest request){

        System.out.println("Before Request");
        System.out.println(request);
        System.out.println("Post Example ac "   request.getAcctNo());
        System.out.println("Post Example co "   request.getTradeComment());
    }

added following dependency in my pom.xml

        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
            <artifactId>jackson-databind</artifactId>

        </dependency>

However I am still getting null. Could anyone who knows please help
