Answer 1

Try this:

String body = """
        data={
            "username": "admin",
            "first_name": "System",
            "last_name": "Administrator"
        }
        """;
StringEntity entity = new StringEntity(body,
    ContentType.APPLICATION_FORM_URLENCODED);

HttpClient httpClient = HttpClientBuilder.create().build();
HttpPost request = new HttpPost("http://localhost:8080/register");
request.setEntity(entity);

HttpResponse response = httpClient.execute(request);
System.out.println(response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode());

You need following imports:

package org.kodejava.apache.http;
import org.apache.http.HttpResponse;
import org.apache.http.client.HttpClient;
import org.apache.http.client.methods.HttpPost;
import org.apache.http.entity.ContentType;
import org.apache.http.entity.StringEntity;
import org.apache.http.impl.client.HttpClientBuilder;

and depency:
