ServletUriComponentsBuilder.fromCurrentContextPath() inside ElasticBeanstalk return http instead of https

Question

I deployed a Spring Boot Application on EB using a docker container. It works well but in some parts of my code I've something like this:

ServletUriComponentsBuilder builder = ServletUriComponentsBuilder.fromCurrentContextPath();

to get the current url of the application. In the local machine it works fine but on EB (using classing load balancer) - that uses https protocol - that line of code return http instead of https.

I've already added this configuration in my project:

    @Bean
    FilterRegistrationBean<ForwardedHeaderFilter> forwardedHeaderFilter() {
        FilterRegistrationBean<ForwardedHeaderFilter> bean = new FilterRegistrationBean<>();
        bean.setFilter(new ForwardedHeaderFilter());
        return bean;
    }

Do you have any hint to follow to fix the problem?

I solved using this Spring Boot property:

server.forward-headers-strategy = framework
