JAVA Spring boot : Required String parameter 'xxx' is not present for DELETE Method

Question

I tried to create some code :

@RequestMapping(value = "/testing", method = RequestMethod.POST) public ResponseEntity<Object> testing(@RequestParam(value = "requestId", required = true) String requestId){ return new ResponseEntity<Object>(requestId, HttpStatus.OK); }

And I test that service using postman the response is success, no issue But when I change the RequestMethod to DELETE

 @RequestMapping(value = "/testing", method = RequestMethod.DELETE) public ResponseEntity<Object> testing(@RequestParam(value = "requestId", required = true) String requestId){ return new ResponseEntity<Object>(requestId, HttpStatus.OK); }

Response of that service is error :

{ "trace": "org.springframework.web.bind.MissingServletRequestParameterException: Required String parameter 'requestId' is not present\r\n\tat org.springframework.web.method.annotation.RequestParamMethodArgumentResolver.handleMissingValue(RequestParamMethodArgumentResolver.java:204)\r\n\tat org.springframework.web.method.annotation.AbstractNamedValueMethodArgumentResolver.resolveArgument(AbstractNamedValueMethodArgumentResolver.java:112)\r\n\tat org.springframework.web.method.support.HandlerMethodArgumentResolverComposite.resolveArgument

I set the requestId on body (form-data) same like i did when i call the POST method. I only change the RequestMethod from POST to DELETE, any idea for this case?

RequestParam extracts the value from URI, not the body form-data — D.T

On delete method body data could be ignored. You can try requestId variable on path.

@RequestMapping(value = "/testing/{requestId}", method = RequestMethod.DELETE) public ResponseEntity<Object> testing(@PathVariable String requestId){ return new ResponseEntity<Object>(requestId, HttpStatus.OK); }

hi, thanks for your suggest, and if i used the params for requestid, the result success. but in this case, i want to use form-data as request. any other suggest?

form data(tag) only can be used with GET or POST HTTP request. maybe you can use some detour with hidden input tag. And check hidden value on every request. <form id="form" action="/testing" method="POST" > <input type="hidden" name="_method" value="DELETE"/> </form>
