Spring RestTemplate Statuscodeexception pass custom message to exception handling

Question

In my app Service A communicates with service B. in Service B I do some db queries so there can come up a NOT_FOUND status.

Code:

Service A

try{
RestTemplate.exchange()...
}catch(HttpStatusCodeException e){

return new ResonseEntity<String>(// Here custom message of service B extracted from e //,e.getStatusCode)
}

Service B:

return new ResponseEntity<String> ("My Error Message", HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND)

So basically I want to use "My Error Message" in the exceptionhandling in Service A. Is there a way to pass it to the exception?

HttpStatusCodeException inherits a method called getResponseBodyAsString simply use e.getResponseBodyAsString() and you will get the custom message sent by Service B.
