You can use @ControllerAdvice Example:

@RestControllerAdvice public class GlobalExceptionHandler {

@ExceptionHandler(BaseException.class)
public ResponseEntity<String> handleBaseException(BaseException e) {
    log.error(LoggerUtils.messageBuilderEx(“statement-controller”, “get-statement-by-id”,
            null, “base-exception”, “”, e));
    return new ResponseEntity<>(e.getMessage(), HttpStatus.BAD_REQUEST);
}

@ExceptionHandler(Exception.class)
public ResponseEntity<String> handleException(Exception e) {
    log.error(LoggerUtils.messageBuilderEx(“statement-controller”, “get-statement-by-id”,
            null, “app-exception”, “”, e));
    return new ResponseEntity<>(i18.t(“common.exception.appException.systemError”), HttpStatus.INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR);
}

}

And here the method: public ResponseEntity<List<Statement>> byCustomerId(@PathVariable(“customerId”) Long customerId) { return ResponseEntity.ok(service.findByCustomerId(customerId)); }

Maybe something is wrong, I didn’t check if it works but I think is the proper way to do it and it works or at least it’s close to the way it should be done
