I am having below error while running curl command using java in Mac where it gives IOException and says cannot run the program

Below is my curl for a POST request in java:

String payload1 = "curl --location --request POST 'https://some_url/abc' \\\n" +
					"--header 'Api-Key: RIQOWU-9asds943msd9d934nmwdw0d' \\\n" +
					"--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \\\n" +
					"--header 'BarId: di292sdk/dmasdaskdnasd934n3sda0334n5Yz1QlVnnTmJ39U4aJT8/9sdns/Xwpen/asdksaeibwae+292nsadsaweg3ARyWwAA0LuSDIL3s+A/EVkLoVhc=' \\\n" +
					"--header 'Accept: application/json;v=2' \\\n" +
					"--header 'Cookie: JSESSIONID=9SDKSDSD9M23B4D46BF663F2B51E75137' \\\n" +
					"--data-raw '{\n" +
					"\"AU\": \"EC\",\n" +
					"    \"is\": \"is\",\n" +
					"    \"ls\": \"js\",\n" +
					"    \"Timestamp\": \"2021-06-26T18:43:00Z\"\n" +
					"}'";
			ProcessBuilder process = new ProcessBuilder(payload1);
			Process p;
			p = process.start();

Below is the relevant data from response

I've tried mentioning the path of curl too in the String like below but still getting the same error.

String payload1 = "/usr/local/Cellar/curl/7.71.1/bin/curl.exe "+"--location --request POST......above payload......"

Please let me know if what could be the cause of it not able to interpret curl command in java. Greatly appreciated!!

Are you certain the path to curl is correct - does it end ".exe"? I would have thought Mac version had no ".exe". Validate the executable path used in the call with:

 File curl = new File("/usr/local/Cellar/curl/7.71.1/bin/curl"); 
 System.out.println("curl.exists()="+curl.exists());
 System.out.println("Files.isExecutable()="+Files.isExecutable(curl.toPath()));

Runtime.exec has Runtime.exec(String) but there is no ProcessBuilder(String) - that has ProcessBuilder(String ...). As your parameter is complex switch to String[], and this rules out issue with punctuation inside your command which will not require the line continuation values \\\n :

 String [] payload1 = new String[] { curl.getAbsolutePath(), 
       "--location", "--request", "POST"
     , "https://some_url/abc"
     , "--header", "Api-Key: RIQOWU-9asds943msd9d934nmwdw0d"
     
 ... etc

     , "--data-raw", "{\n" +
                "\"AU\": \"EC\",\n" +
                "    \"is\": \"is\",\n" +
                "    \"ls\": \"js\",\n" +
                "    \"Timestamp\": \"2021-06-26T18:43:00Z\"\n" +
                "}"
 };

Now you have Pipe errors, so if you send data to the process getOutputstream you should close() it, and ideally redirect the process output and error streams to file with:

process.redirectOutput(file);
process.redirectError(file):
