In case of simple example if your api is below

@POST
    @Path("update_accounts")
    @Consumes(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
    @PermissionRequired(Permissions.UPDATE_ACCOUNTS)
    void createLimit(List<AccountUpdateRequest> requestList) throws RuntimeException;

where AccountUpdateRequest :

public class AccountUpdateRequest {
    private Long accountId;
    private AccountType accountType;
    private BigDecimal amount;
...
}

then your postman request would be: http://localhost:port/update_accounts

[
         {
            "accountType": "LEDGER",
            "accountId": 11111,
            "amount": 100
         },
         {
            "accountType": "LEDGER",
            "accountId": 2222,
            "amount": 300
          },
         {
            "accountType": "LEDGER",
            "accountId": 3333,
            "amount": 1000
          }
]

Use this Format as per your requirements          address    colombo        username    hesh        password    123        registetedDate    2015-4-3        firstname    hesh        contactNo    07762        accountNo    16161        lastName    jay       arrayOneName                             Id    1               Employee     EmpOne                 Deptartment     HR                                    Id    2               Employee     EmpTwo                Deptartment     IT                                    Id    3               Employee     EmpThree                Deptartment     Sales                        arrayTwoName                            Product    3                Price    6790                        arrayThreeName               name1    name2    name3    name4     For Strings             arrayFourName              1  2  3  4    For Numbers            Remember to use this in POST with proper endpoint  Also  RAW selected and JSON application json  in Body Tab   Like THIS     Update 1   I don t think multiple  RequestBody is allowed or possible    RequestBody parameter must have the entire body of the request and bind that to  only one object   You have to use something like Wrapper Object for this to work

If you use the following format in your request section while making sure the request url is of http   localhost XXXX OperationName V                    address    colombo          username    hesh          password    123          registetedDate    2015-4-3          firstname    hesh          contactNo    07762          accountNo    16161          lastName    jay                   listName                      elementOne   valueOne                              elementTwo   valueTwo

Make sure that you have made the content-type as application json in header request and Post from body under the raw tab        address    colombo      username    hesh      password    123      registetedDate    2015-4-3      firstname    hesh      contactNo    07762      accountNo    16161      lastName    jay      arrayObjectName            Id    1       Name    ABC                Id    2       Name     XYZ           intArrayName     111 222 333      stringArrayName      a   b   c

I m not sure what server side technology you are using but try using a json array   A couple of options for you to try        address    colombo      username    hesh      password    123      registetedDate    2015-4-3      firstname    hesh      contactNo    07762      accountNo    16161      lastName    jay           1436517454492     1436517476993     If that doesn t work you may also try       freelancer       address    colombo      username    hesh      password    123      registetedDate    2015-4-3      firstname    hesh      contactNo    07762      accountNo    16161      lastName    jay       skills            1436517454492         1436517476993
