Spring boot - accessing raw json data

I am following a spring boot tutorial here:

Spring boot tutorial for consuming a rest service

The tutorial works fine, but is there a way I can print the raw JSON before it is unmarshalled (via the jackson JSON processing library) for logging purposes?

The quickest way to do this is to set the log level to DEBUG for the HTTP input buffer : simply add logging.level.org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11InputBuffer = DEBUG to your src/main/resources/application.properties file. You should then see something similar to the following lines in your log messages:

2017-02-28 17:35:03.554 DEBUG 856 --- [nio-8443-exec-5] o.a.coyote.http11.Http11InputBuffer      : Received [POST /tasks HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:8443
Authorization: Basic ****************
User-Agent: curl/7.51.0
Accept: */*
content-type:application/json
Content-Length: 17

{ "foo" : "bar" }]

Also check this SO post where I offered several options regarding tinkering with the raw JSON content with home made controller methods.
