Receiving Invalid character found in method name on GET request

I'm trying to utilize a MapBox api in my backend, but am receiving this error. I've never seen this before. Is there something I need to do to configure my endpoint?

Error -

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid character found in method name [0x160x030x010x020x000x010x000x010xfc0x030x03mA0xe8&0x1f0xfa80xcd0x1b0x900xec!0xfd0xb30x04<0xcb0xa20x16@0x96H0x180x88[0xf90xeb0xbeK?^0xc8]. HTTP method names must be tokens

Service -

public String getTarget() {
    TargetLocation location = targetLocationRepository.findTargetLocationById();
    String lat = location.getLatitude();
    String lng = location.getLongitude();
    return "https://api.mapbox.com/geocoding/v5/mapbox.places/"+lat+","+lng+".json?access_token=${"+MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN+"}";
}

Controller -

@GetMapping(value = "getTarget")
public String getTarget() {
    return targetLocationService.getTarget();
}

The method is expecting you to use HTTP instead of HTTPS.

It seems that this might be related to HTTPS. It occurs when you try to execute HTTPS request from client on endpoint that has not HTTPS enabled. Use http: (http://api.mapbox.com/geocoding/v5/mapbox.places) in your client instead.
