How to hand over an HTTP-Response returned by a REST-API with Spring Boot?

I'm implementing a REST-API using the Spring Boot framework. Now this REST-API has to call another REST-API and just needs to pass through the incoming HTTP-Response as is, basically functioning as a gateway.

Is there a simple way to achieve this without mapping the response to a bean?

I would use RestTemplate. Its only a few lines of code.

https://spring.io/guides/gs/consuming-rest/

This would map in into a String if that if fine for you:

 RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate();
 String fooResourceUrl = "http://localhost:8080/spring-rest/foos";
 ResponseEntity<String> respons = restTemplate.getForEntity(fooResourceUrl + "/1", String.class);
