Sending JSON file using relative path with curl

Question

I have a JSON file called people.json:

[
    {
        "name": "Adam"
    }, 
    {
        "name": "Eve"
    }
]

I'm trying to send this data using a POST request with curl, from the project's root directory:

curl --request POST \
     --header 'Content-Type: application/json' 'Accept: application/json' \
     --data-binary @src/test/java/com/spring/app/people.json \
     http://127.0.0.1:8080/api/v1/person -v -s

I keep getting the "Bad Request" error:

* Closing connection -1
*   Trying 127.0.0.1:8080...
* Connected to 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) port 8080 (#0)

I've already had a look at this post, but still get the same error. I've also installed homebrew curl, but even using that doesn't resolve the error.

I would appreciate any help.
