How to apply @PostFilter when returning ModelAndView?

Question

Java

Hello!
The @PostFilter annotation allows you to filter the elements of the returned collection through filterObject. This is good for RestController:

@RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET)
    @PostFilter("filterObject.owner.email == authentication.name")
    public Collection<Club> getEntities(){
        return entityService.getEntities();
    }

Can you please tell me how to apply it if ModelAndView is returned with an attribute with a collection? filterObject is not available in SPeL this time, because the collection is returned directly, but inside the model:

@RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET)
    @PostFilter("??? filterObject.owner.email == authentication.name")
    public String getEntities(Model model) {
        model.addAttribute("entities", entityService.getEntities());
        return "tamplate";
    }

Or, if this is not possible, maybe there is some kind of workaround? Thank you!

You can simply annotate not a controller method, but a service method.
