For me, the easiest way is using library called Retrofit2

We just need to create an Interface that contain our request method, parameters, and also we can make custom header for each request :

    public interface MyService {

      @GET("users/{user}/repos")
      Call> listRepos(@Path("user") String user);

      @GET("user")
      Call getUserDetails(@Header("Authorization") String   credentials);

      @POST("users/new")
      Call createUser(@Body User user);

      @FormUrlEncoded
      @POST("user/edit")
      Call updateUser(@Field("first_name") String first, 
                            @Field("last_name") String last);

      @Multipart
      @PUT("user/photo")
      Call updateUser(@Part("photo") RequestBody photo, 
                            @Part("description") RequestBody description);

      @Headers({
        "Accept: application/vnd.github.v3.full+json",
        "User-Agent: Retrofit-Sample-App"
      })
      @GET("users/{username}")
      Call getUser(@Path("username") String username);    

    }

And the best is, we can do it asynchronously easily using enqueue method
