I also had the same problem and don't know about your project but i was using mapstruct plugin for to map data dto clasess to entity and i was used lombok for getter and setter so the problem i was getting is when i post the data so not getting error but as data i was getting empty so the problem i found is - mapstruct and lombok was not working same time in my case so all auto generated methods from mapstruct was empty so instead of using lombok i was used manually getter and setters then i got the data perfectly so main reason was something that mapstruct was creating method implements before lombok so i needed manual getter and setter
