Rest Controller works just for Application class

Question

I'm trying to do a getmapping method using rest-api which will return as a JSON on localhost: 8080. When I do this from the default Application class it works great but when I move this functionality to another class nothing happens. Could someone help me with this, please?

Answer 1

Reason 1: Default Spring's component scanning can't fount your @RestController component, so you can try to do @ComponentScan directly.

Reason 2: You need to specify an endpoint for your @GetMapping by using @RequestMapping/@GetMapping("url") or both of them.
