How to solve the error "No serializer found for class java.io.ByteArrayInputStream " when passing MultipartFile using RestTemplate?

I am trying to pass a spring MultipartFile from my application to a microservice, and using RestTemplate, as the following,

    HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
    headers.setContentType(MediaType.MULTIPART_FORM_DATA);

    MultiValueMap<String, Object> body= new LinkedMultiValueMap<>(); 
    body.add("circularAttachment", souqBean.getCircularAttachment()); //MultipartFile 
    body.add("circularEntryId", souqBean.getCircularEntryId());
    body.add("circularTitle", souqBean.getCircularTitle());


    HttpEntity<?> entity = new HttpEntity<MultiValueMap<String, Object>>(body,headers); 


     ResponseEntity<Boolean> response =    restTemplate.postForEntity("http://localhost:8081/circular-save", entity, Boolean.class);
     status=response.getBody();

For more information, below is getCircularAttachment() method

public MultipartFile getCircularAttachment() {
        return circularAttachment;
    }

where MultipartFile is a class in Spring: org.springframework.web.multipart.MultipartFile

But on this line,

ResponseEntity<Boolean> response =    restTemplate.postForEntity("http://localhost:8081/circular-save", entity, Boolean.class);
 status=response.getBody();

I get the following error:

org.springframework.http.converter.HttpMessageNotWritableException: Could not write JSON: No serializer found for class java.io.ByteArrayInputStream and no properties discovered to create BeanSerializer (to avoid exception, disable SerializationFeature.FAIL_ON_EMPTY_BEANS) ); nested exception is com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JsonMappingException: No serializer found for class java.io.ByteArrayInputStream and no properties discovered to create BeanSerializer (to avoid exception, disable SerializationFeature.FAIL_ON_EMPTY_BEANS) ) (through reference chain: org.springframework.web.multipart.commons.CommonsMultipartFile["fileItem"]->org.apache.commons.fileupload.disk.DiskFileItem["inputStream"])

The signature of the service is expecting byte[]'s, so even if a ByteInputStream was serializable it would still not be the correct thing to send. Just send those byte[]'s.

body.add("circularAttachment", 
                   new ByteArrayResource(souqBean.getCircularAttachment().getBytes()));
