Simple and explained very well... I am trying to get something done similar but in my case before calling the actual endpoint I need to get authentication token and use it in subsequent request. The token has a expiry time and have to be stored and reused. Can you please explain how can save it and use.
Thanks

Sir, can you make a video for POST method using restTemplate? U just pass some headers and requestBody and take the response as an Object(because u don’t know what is the response structure) How can we do that ?

Hello Sir,
Can you please make a video series of Quarkus in Java ?

Can you please make a video to read a excel file using Quarkus and produce JSON object and send to another service ?

[Romigo]

Thank you for the video !
Couple of comments:
1. I always thought that IDEA autosaves evething we code ? why do you use "Save all" ?
2. As for me I don't like when IDEA underlines something, so when you use @Autowired, and you have next string underlined, one could use Lombok annotation @RequiredArgsConstructor and code next: private final RestTemplate restTemplate;

[Ravikumar-gjqw]

Hi Kindson, what if i add @enablefeignclient annotation on springbootapplication level ?

Do you have a video or could you give me a hint on how to go about the task.
If the site at which you are trying to consume data from is not static, for instance : weather. And then i have to consume data from this site at an interval, every 3hrs for instance and save it to the database
