Interface ClientResponse

All Known Implementing Classes:

ClientResponseWrapper

public interface ClientResponse

Represents an HTTP response, as returned by WebClient and also ExchangeFunction. Provides access to the response status and headers, and also methods to consume the response body.

NOTE: When given access to a ClientResponse, through the WebClient exchange() method, you must always use one of the body or toEntity methods to ensure resources are released and avoid potential issues with HTTP connection pooling. You can use bodyToMono(Void.class) if no response content is expected. However keep in mind that if the response does have content, the connection will be closed and will not be placed back in the pool.
