I need to connect to a remote web service that will issue a JSON response to the request. How to contact the service? I'm thinking of sending a POST request using HttpurlConnection. But is there any other ways? more correct?

JavaScript. But isn't there an `` tag or something like that? – Dave Newton Feb 05 '18 at 18:17

In your JSF backing bean (or put it in a utility class) you can use one of the answers here [Java sending http parameters via post method easily](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4205980/java-sending-http-parameters-via-post-method-easily) – JGlass Feb 05 '18 at 18:47

@elik You should have specified you wanted to do it on the server side. – Dave Newton Feb 05 '18 at 19:25
