Returning JSON with Web Services

[former_member704951]

If I were to hit this end point with the platformwebservices brought into my project it returns XML. Is there a parameter I can pass that would allow this to return JSON?

http://localhost:9001/ws410/rest/countries

I'm on hybris 6.1 if that matters too.

Is this on a brand new Hybris Commerce setup? Did you use any specific recipes with the installer or did you deploy it yourself? What were your steps for setting up the platform?

[former_member704951]

Its not a brand new install, we have our companies custom extensions on the platform as well. We didnt use an installer. Im not sure if that matters though since the 'platformwebservices' is a hybris OOTB extension to expose the Web Services (at least that's how I understand it). Im using postman to hit that url with credentials of admin/nimda on my local machine to see what im getting back.

@RequestMapping(value = "/rest/countries", method = RequestMethod.GET, produces = { MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE })

include in your request mapping.

But isn't that request mapping in hybris OOTB code? Are you suggesting to override where ever (platformwebservices) this method is to my own custom stuff? So I would have to override the whole extension to get all the endpoints available in JSON?
