Hi sachin 

 

If you are expecting JSON, have you tried using (vary the HTTP request as appropriate for your need)

 

<#assign resp = http.client.request("https", "api.test.com", "/context/path").body("param1=val1", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded").json().post() />
<#if resp.hasError>
Error!
<#else>
<#assign jsonResp = resp.content >
${resp.content}
</#if> 

Thanks,

I tried the solution but it did not helped. I am getting freemarker error. Below is the error.

{ "error":"
