I followed the same code in my rest api project but I get the following error - "org.springframework.http.InvalidMediaTypeException: Invalid mime type "null": 'mimeType' must not be empty.
I am getting Http 500 error while testing in Postman. Please help me.

Since it is using a ContentCachingRequestWrapper, doesn't this only work for POST and application/x-www-form-urlencoded requests?

yes

I am not getting response headers any idea why

@lavanya2290 check whether u r sending headers; in case u r sending headers kindy shared the code snippet.

@tejas07
can u check in https://github.com/lavanya2290/request-response-log.git

How can I use this filter before the permission evaluator.. I do not find any way. trying since days. Handlers do execute before, bad is they have a limitation which this filter can do. Any ideas?

Fixed the garbled characters probrem on json format.
See this fork https://github.com/LinfinyJapan/RequestAndResponseLoggingFilter

Hi!

If I try to log the request body in beforeRequest method, then It does not do anything. Do you know why?

Thanks!

Becuase @component annotation is missing
