If you have already checked the protocol, then check if the @ResponseBody annotation is missing.

- BEFORE:

@PostMapping(value = {"/reset/{token}"})

public ResponseDTO resetPassword(HttpServletRequest request, @PathVariable String token) {

ResponseDTO dto = request(request, token);

dto.setData("hello there!");

return dto;

}

- AFTER:

@PostMapping(value = {"/reset/{token}"})

@ResponseBody

public ResponseDTO resetPassword(HttpServletRequest request, @PathVariable String token) {

ResponseDTO dto = request(request, token);

dto.setData("hello there!");

return dto;

}
