Answer 1

Here you don't want to change any dependencies with pom.xml file.

--> Problem is with postman, you have change the postman result as XML to JSON then you will get the response as JSON. Please check the below image to change the settings in Postman.

add this to specific api controller:

produces = MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE

like here:

@GetMapping(value = "/{id}", produces = MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE)
public UserDto getUser(@Valid @PathVariable long id) {
    return mapper.fromUser(service.getById(id));
}
