Content-Type not matching in ModifyResponseBodyGatewayFilterFactory - spring-cloud

Question

I have the following Class that extends ModifyResponseBodyGatewayFilterFactory: -
#Component
public class ModifyResponse extends ModifyResponseBodyGatewayFilterFactory{
public ModifyResponse(List<HttpMessageReader<?>> messageReaders, Set<MessageBodyDecoder> messageBodyDecoders, Set<MessageBodyEncoder> messageBodyEncoders) {
super(messageReaders, messageBodyDecoders, messageBodyEncoders);
}
#Override
public GatewayFilter apply(Config config) {
config.setRewriteFunction(String.class, String.class, (exchange, originalContent)->{
JSONObject response = new JSONObject(originalContent);
response.remove("key");
return Mono.just(response.toString());
});
return super.apply(config);
}
}
My Controller class running on another port is as follows: -
#RestController
public class HomeController {
#PostMapping(value = "/home", produces = "application/json")
public ResponseEntity<Object> home(#RequestBody Object request, #RequestParam(value = "param1") String param1){
JSONObject response = new JSONObject(request);
return ResponseEntity.status(HttpStatus.OK).body(response.toString());
}
}
When I pass a request to the controller that is supposed to go and comeback through the gateway filter, I get the following error: -
org.springframework.web.reactive.function.UnsupportedMediaTypeException: Content type 'application/json;charset=UTF-8' not supported for bodyType=java.lang.String

Regardless of what I change the inclass or outclass type to in the setRewriteFunction(), it always returns the same error.
