Answer 1

I managed to get this to work, generating a List of Strings.

Within the ApiModelProperty with springfox 2, write your example as follows:

example = "[\"AddLine1\",\"AddLine2\",\"AddLine3\",\"AddLine4\"]"

Here is my example:

@ApiModelProperty(value = "Address", name = "addLines", 
    example = "[\"AddLine1\",\"AddLine2\",\"AddLine3\",\"AddLine4\"]")

When I render the swagger page, I get the following output:

"addLines": [
      "AddLine1",
      "AddLine2",
      "AddLine3",
      "AddLine4"
    ],
