Just wanted to add one more problem that some people might find on top of all the other answers  Sending JSON object using RAW data and setting the type to application json is what is to be done as has been mentioned above   Even though I had done so  I got error in the POSTMAN request  it was because I accidentally forgot to create a default constructor for both child class   Say if I had to send a JSON of format       firstname     John     lastname     Doe     book        name   Some Book       price  12 2         Then just make sure you create a default constructor for Book class   I know this is a simple and uncommon error  but did certainly help me
