Added Springfox Swagger-UI and it's not working, what am I missing?

Question

Following the instructions here:

I added these dependencies to my project:

Answer 1

I also ran into this and the issue was that we had a controller without path mapping (thus mapping to "/"). That was blocking the requests to the swagger-ui resources.

Answer 2

Adding @RequestMapping("/") in controller level(after @RestController\@Controller annotation) helps me to get rid of the Request method 'GET' not supported issue. Thanks to Dhermanns's suggestion

Answer 3

I tried most of these answers and the final solution was creeping..

The right URL is the following

http://localhost:8080/swagger-ui/

I'm using Springfox swagger-ui 3.x.x

Answer 4

I got swagger issue /swagger-ui.html request method 'get' not supported\request method 'get' not supported.\supported methods post

I was able to fix the issue

In my controller api @RequestMapping() doesn't have path info. provided path like below Fix - @RequestMapping(value = '/v1/createAnalytic')

Answer 5

I ran into this issue because I had endpoints with request mappings that had path variables of this form: /{var}. Turns out that this is an issue for both GET and POST endpoints i.e. GET /{var} and POST /{var} block swagger-ui. Once I made the paths more specific, I got swagger-ui to work.

Quote from https://github.com/springfox/springfox/issues/1672

When spring finds a simple path with just one variable swagger cannot intercept the URLs.
