thanks!

the jersey distribution doesn't come json/pojo support out box. need add dependencies/jars.

add these

• jersey-media-json-jackson-2.17
• jackson-jaxrs-json-provider-2.3.2
• jackson-core-2.3.2
• jackson-databind-2.3.2
• jackson-annotations-2.3.2
• jackson-jaxrs-base-2.3.2
• jackson-module-jaxb-annotations-2.3.2
• jersey-entity-filtering-2.17

with maven, below pull above in

<dependency>     <groupid>org.glassfish.jersey.media</groupid>     <artifactid>jersey-media-json-jackson</artifactid>     <version>2.17</version> </dependency> 

for future readers not using jersey 2.17 (and using jars directly instead of maven), can go here find jersey version using, , see transitive dependency versions need. current version of jersey dependency uses jackson 2.3.2. that's main thing need out for.
