I have this VO
public class myVO { private final String latitude; private final String longtitude; private final String meterRadius; public myVO(String latitude, String longtitude, String meterRadius) { this.latitude = latitude; this.longtitude = longtitude; this.meterRadius = meterRadius; } public String getLatitude() { return latitude; } public String getLongtitude() { return longtitude; } public String getMeterRadius() { return meterRadius; } } And rest service
@Path("/listrs") @Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON) public class MyResource { Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(MyResource.class); private final AtomicLong counter; public MyResource(String template, String defaultName) { //this.template = template; //this.defaultName = defaultName; this.counter = new AtomicLong(); } @GET @Timed public List<ResultVO> getMyList() { List<ResultVO> list = new ArrayList<>(); list.add(new ResultVO(counter.incrementAndGet(), "dummy text")); list.add(new ResultVO(counter.incrementAndGet(), "dummy text1")); return list; } @POST @Timed @Consumes(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON) public List<ResultVO> getListByLoc(myVO loc) { logger.debug(loc.toString()); return getMyList(); } } Testing it using
curl -i -X POST -d '{"latitude": "2.3433", "longtitude": "23.2233", "meterRadius":"5"}' Result I'm getting:

Add this with curl:
-H "Content-Type: application/json" Another thing, you are possibly running this from windows pc. So wrap your json with double quote(") instead of single(')
-d "{\"latitude\": \"2.3433\", \"longtitude\": \"23.2233\", \"meterRadius\":\"5\"}" Notice, I have escaped the inner quotes with \
Finally, use -v param with your curl. It will help you to see what curl is sending to the server.
