Today I'm going to explain the steps for configuring Actuator in a Rest Service Spring Boot Application.
It's very easy, only two steps and you have it!
First you have to add the dependency to the pom.xml file:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-actuator</artifactId>
</dependency>
The second step is the disable security to the services offers by actuator.
You have to edit the application.properties file and add:
management.security.enabled=false
With this to step, you can run your appication and can call the next services:
http://localhost:8080/health for know the State of your App.
http://localhost:8080/mappings for view your Rest Services published
And you have more services, you can see in your log of your App when you run it.
Try it and have fun!
