You won't be able to set a custom content type with setContentType(MediaType mediaType) since it accepts a MediaType object, which your custom MediaType cannot be converted into.

You can use the below to set the custom content type:

headers.set(HttpHeaders.CONTENT_TYPE,"application/custom");

Use: headers.setContentType(MediaType.valueOf(VENDOR_MEDIA_TYPE));
