I have created an API on AWS API Gateway. When I access this using postman it works fine but when I am trying to access this in java using Spring RestTemplate, it gives me connection time out error. I tried with below different rest client approaches. But no luck. Not sure what mistake I am doing in code below.

Please note, I changed URI and IPs in below code/exception as I don't want to disclose actual URl and IPs.

Approach-1

final String uri = "https://xyz.execute-api.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/dev/dynamodb/users/55";

RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate();
String result = restTemplate.getForObject(uri, String.class);

System.out.println(result);

Approach-2

CloseableHttpClient httpClient = HttpClients.custom().setSSLHostnameVerifier(new NoopHostnameVerifier()).build();

HttpComponentsClientHttpRequestFactory requestFactory = new HttpComponentsClientHttpRequestFactory();
requestFactory.setHttpClient(httpClient);

RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate(requestFactory);

final String uri = "https://xyz.execute-api.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/dev/dynamodb/users/55";

String result = restTemplate.getForObject(uri, String.class); 

System.out.println(result); 

Getting below exception when I call API using above java/spring code.

Exception in thread "main" org.springframework.web.client.ResourceAccessException: I/O error on GET request for "https://xyz.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/dev/dynamodb/users/55": Connect to xyz.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com:443 [xyz.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/11.11.232.11, xyz.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/52.200.98.93, xyz.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/11.81.200.210] failed: Connection timed out: connect; nested exception is org.apache.http.conn.HttpHostConnectException: Connect to xyz.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com:443 [xyz.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/11.11.232.11, xyz.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/52.200.98.93, xyz.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/11.81.200.210] failed: Connection timed out: connect

Finally, I got this working with below code.

 return restTemplate;

 SSLContext sslContext = org.apache.http.ssl.SSLContexts.custom().loadTrustMaterial(null, acceptingTrustStrategy)
 .build();
 SSLConnectionSocketFactory csf = new SSLConnectionSocketFactory(sslContext, new NoopHostnameVerifier());
 HttpClientBuilder builder = HttpClients.custom();
 builder.setSSLSocketFactory(csf);
 builder.setProxy(new HttpHost("youproxy.com", 8080, "http"));
 CloseableHttpClient httpClient = builder.build();
 HttpComponentsClientHttpRequestFactory requestFactory = new HttpComponentsClientHttpRequestFactory();

 requestFactory.setHttpClient(httpClient);
 restTemplate = new RestTemplate(requestFactory);
 return restTemplate;
