In this article I’ll explain how to set up a basic @RestController in a Spring Boot application, using both @GetMapping and @PostMapping annotations. Besides, this application includes Springfox Swagger so the REST API endpoints are documented and accessible through this tool.

Mapping REST API to Plain Java Objects (POJOs)
Let’s say you want to connect your web/application with a third party REST API. Within this article I’ll put as example the SonarQube API, given that is the one I’ve used in my last personal project (see post).
In this post I’ll describe how I solved the situation of having no schema for the data that you’re retrieving from the REST API. How can we map this structure to Java Objects?
