How to Accept Multiple JSON Objects in a Spring Boot Request Body

I'm working on a Spring Boot project, and I need to create an API endpoint that accepts multiple JSON objects in the request body. These objects represent data that I want to process in bulk, but I'm not sure how to structure my controller method to handle this.

Here's a simplified example of what I want to achieve:
Let's say I have a JSON array like this:

[code][
{
"name": "Product A",
"price": 10.99
},
{
"name": "Product B",
"price": 19.99
},
{
"name": "Product C",
"price": 5.99
}
]
[/code]

I want to send this array in the request body and have my Spring Boot controller method process each object individually.

[code]@PostMapping("/process-products")
public ResponseEntity<?> processProducts(@RequestBody List products) {
// Process each product in the list
}
[/code]

How should my controller function be set up such that a POST request may receive and handle several JSON objects in the request body? Do I need to be aware of any annotations or setups in order to accomplish this? I tried looking for the answer on several websites, but I was unable to receive a good response. I'm looking for guidance on handling bulk data in the request body in Spring Boot effectively.
