Question

Answer 1

The rest template is expecting a variable "{name}" to be in there for it to replace.

What I think you're looking to do is build a URL with query parameters you have one of two options:

1. Use a UriComponentsBuilder and add the parameters by that
2. String url = BASE_URL + "/android/played.json?name={name}"

Option 1 is much more flexible though. Option 2 is more direct if you just need to get this done.

Example as requested

// Assuming BASE_URL is just a host url like http://www.somehost.com/
URI targetUrl= UriComponentsBuilder.fromUriString(BASE_URL)  // Build the base link
    .path("/android/played.json")                            // Add path
    .queryParam("name", nome)                                // Add one or more query params
    .build()                                                 // Build the URL
    .encode()                                                // Encode any URI items that need to be encoded
    .toUri();                                                // Convert to URI

return restTemplate.getForObject(targetUrl, Name.class);
