Answer 1

Direct Class/Interface name can be given like below

@EnableFeignClients(basePackageClasses=com.abc.xxx.client.XXFeignClient.class)

This parameter accept single or multiple class name

Answer 2

You need to tell the Feign scanner where to locate the interfaces.

You can use @EnableFeignClients(basePackages = {"my.external.feign.client.package", "my.local.package"}).

My main class was in package "com.abc.myservicename" and my main class name was "myservicename.java". I was using @SpringBootApplication(scanBasePackages="com.abc") annotation in my main class.

Changing the main class package name to "com.abc" has resolved the issue for me.
