jersey code

@POST

@Consumes("text/plain")
@Produces("text/plain")
public String respondToPost(String incomingCsv) throws IOException {
   return incomingCsv;
}

csv file :

@POST
@Consumes(MediaType.MULTIPART_FORM_DATA)
@Produces("text/plain")
public String respondToPost(@FormDataParam("file") InputStream csv) throws IOException {
    CSVReader csvReader = new CSVReader(new InputStreamReader(csv));
    List<String[]> rows = csvReader.readAll();
    return rows.get(1)[0];

you could use text\plain mediatype to recieve the request and OpenCSV to parse your request body.
