Sending data to the Spring Boot backend with FormData and RequestParam not working

So I am struggling for a while with sending files and other data to the backend with FormData in the frontend and RequestParam in the backend. I tried so many different things and I have searched so long for solutions and nothing that could fix it. I already made sure that the values are not empty by way of console.logs.

Code:

//Front-End
async addProduct(itemDetails) {
        const url = `${this.resourcesUrl}/addProduct`;

        const formData = new FormData();
        formData.append('name', itemDetails.name);
        formData.append('description', itemDetails.description);
        formData.append('file1', itemDetails.file1);
        formData.append('file2', itemDetails.file2);

        const response = await fetch(url, {
            method: 'POST',
            body: formData,
        });

        if (response.ok) {
            return await response.json();
        } else {
            const errorResponse = await response.json();
            throw new Error(errorResponse.message || 'Failed to add product');
        }
    }


//Back-End
@PostMapping("/addProduct")
    public ResponseEntity<Product> addProduct(
            @RequestParam(value = "name") String name,
            @RequestParam(value = "description") String description,
            @RequestPart(value = "file1") MultipartFile file1,
            @RequestPart(value = "file2") MultipartFile file2
    ) {
        try {
            String file1Path = fileStorageService.saveFile(name, file1);
            String file2Path = fileStorageService.saveFile(name, file2);

            Product product = new Product(name, description, file1Path , file2Path);

            productRepository.save(product);

            return ResponseEntity.ok(product);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            return ResponseEntity.badRequest().build();
        }
    }

So when I try to add a new product with this values:

name: Test description: Test file1: (file1) file2: (file2)

I get the error: "Required request parameter 'name' for method parameter type String is not present"

The Content-Type of Request Headers in the network tab is application/json but from what I understand is that it should be automatically set to multipart/form-data but it does not do that, even if I explicitly set the Content-Type in the fetch request to multipart/form-data. I think that this is the reason that the passed parameter value is not being recognized.
