[FIXED] Using Jackson to convert JSON file which has "#" as one of the names, namely "x5t#S256"

Issue

I have a JSON name value pair which I would like to convert to a Java object.

The JSON is as follows

{
    "x5t#S256": "vaule",
}

The below does not work because of illegal character

public class Key {
     @JsonProperty
     private String x5t#S256;
}

As you might guess this has to do with JWKS sets, but that's not relevant for now. It seems like quite straightforward question, but I have not been able to find anything on google.

Solution

You can pass the original name into the annotation, and give a different name to your attribute, for example:

@JsonProperty("x5t#S256")
private String differentName;
