Spring Boot Application.properties has no autocomplete suggestions


I'm a spring boot beginner I created a sample project using the spring initializer in the application.properties I want to change the server. port but editor doesn't know that doesn't know anything at all what's the problem


Solution

  • Community Edition of IntelliJ IDEA doesn't support autocompletion for application.properties. It is an Ultimate edition feature.

    From this support thread:

    Spring Boot framework is available in the Ultimate edition of IntelliJ IDEA only. It comes as a bundled plugin and is enabled by default.
