@DBRef with Spring Data Rest

Question

I have a class called Veiculo and Agencia, in which the Veiculo possesses as a reference Agencia. When its not a list, I can pass the URI reference as well as the following example. But how I do when a list? I appreciate if someone can help me

Entities without getters and setters

Veiculo

@Document
public class Veiculo{

    @Id
    private String id;

    @Indexed(unique = true)
    private String nome;
    private String tipo;
    @DBRef
    List<Contato> contatos;

    @DBRef
    List<Agencia> agencias;

}

Agencia

@Document
public class Agencia {

    @Id
    String id;
    @NotNull
    String nome;

    @CreatedBy
    String createdBy;

    @LastModifiedBy
    String lastModifiedBy;

    @CreatedDate
    @DateTimeFormat(iso = DateTimeFormat.ISO.DATE)
    Date createdAt;

    @LastModifiedDate
    @DateTimeFormat(iso = DateTimeFormat.ISO.DATE)
    Date lastModified;
}

Veiculo Repository

@RepositoryRestResource(collectionResourceRel = "veiculos", path = "veiculos")
public interface VeiculoRepository extends MongoRepository<Veiculo, String> {
    Veiculo save(Veiculo veiculo);
    List<Veiculo> findAll();
}

Agencia Repository

@RepositoryRestResource(collectionResourceRel = "agencias", path = "agencias")
public interface AgenciaRepository extends MongoRepository<Agencia, String> {

    Agencia save(Agencia t);
    List<Agencia> findAll();
    Agencia findByNome(@Param("nome") String nome);
}

The resource serving Veiculo instances exposes links to an association resource for both Contato and Agencia. You can POST payloads with a media type text/uri-list to them to assign references to the Veiculo.
