Spring post controller not handling request body

[violet marten]

I have a ConsultationController that needs to handle a post request that inserts data into the database, but when I send a post request to it it can't handle the data and just sets all the fields to null:

@CrossOrigin(origins = "http://localhost:4200")
@RestController
@RequestMapping("/consultation")
public class ConsultationController {
    @Autowired
    private final ConsultationService consultationService;


    public ConsultationController(ConsultationService consultationService) {
        this.consultationService = consultationService;
    }

    @PostMapping
    public ResponseEntity<?> createConsultation(@RequestBody ConsultationData consultationData) {
        try {
            ConsultationData response = consultationService.insert(consultationData);
            return ResponseEntity.ok(response);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            return ResponseEntity.status(HttpStatus.INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR).body("Error processing consultation: " + e.getMessage());
        }
    }
}

@Data
public class ConsultationData {
    private String contents;
    private String email;
    private String username;
}

{
    "contents": "Is running ok?",
    "email": "[email protected]",
    "username": "NikolaJelic"
}

And this is the error:

ConsultationData(contents=null, email=null, username=null)

I am stuck on this for almost 2h already and can't figure out what is wrong with it. I already have 10 other controllers and haven't had any issues with post and get methods, but now this one is stuck for some reason

Detected code, here are some useful tools:

Formatted code

@CrossOrigin(origins = "http://localhost:4200") @RestController
@RequestMapping("/consultation") public class ConsultationController {
  @Autowired
  private final ConsultationService consultationService;
  public ConsultationController(ConsultationService consultationService) {
    this .consultationService = consultationService;
  }
  @PostMapping
  public ResponseEntity<? > createConsultation(@RequestBody
  ConsultationData consultationData) {
    try {
      ConsultationData response = consultationService.insert(consultationData);
      return ResponseEntity.ok(response);
    } catch (Exception e) {
      return ResponseEntity.status(HttpStatus.INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR).body("Error processing consultation: " + e.getMessage());
    }
  }
}
