Although there is no hard & fast rule but I generally avoid sending a body in GET request because it's a bad design. You should also refer to this SO Post which contains discussion about using body in GET request. It's an opinionated post and there is no clear YES or NO, but you will get an idea.
HTTP GET with request body
You can either use Path params or query params depending on what those field represent.
Regarding the difference or which to use when I am quoting this answer, which mentions that although there is no hard rule but generally it's better to use params which can uniquely identify the resource as Path param (e.g. id, name etc) and if your param is supposed to do something like filtering/sorting e.g. records after Jan 1 2019 , then go for query param.
Also personally in one of my APIs (which performs filtering), I am using a generic query param, where I pass on JSON object in my query. So basically my API needs to search an object based on variable/multiple attributes. E.g. I have in my db , objects which have certain voltage, current, size etc. values. So, request might come with a combination of 1 or more. So to keep my API flexible, I have provided a query param which can accept JSON object.
So I make a request like this:
{{SERVER}}/api/search?query={voltage:12V,size:10}
And in my API, I can convert this json object to corresponding POJO:
@GET
@Path("/search")
@Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
@Consumes(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
public Response search(@QueryParam("query") String queryParam) throws Exception
{
Myobj obj = new Gson().fromJson(queryParam, Myobj.class);
