I had the same problem plus not showing auto completion found out that it works with IntelliJ Ultimate edition and not community version. link

couple of useful steps to take would be:

• adding Maven dependency:

    org.springframework.boot
    spring-boot-configuration-processor
    true

• refresh Maven to download dependencies.
• coping exact name of property from target/classes/META-INF/spring-configuration-metadata.js to prevent errors.
• making sure that your config class is annotated with @ConfigurationProperties("name-here") and that you have enabled it by @EnableConfigurationProperties(NameOfTheConfigClass.class)
