Annotation Type Endpoint


@Target(TYPE) @Retention(RUNTIME) @Documented public @interface Endpoint
Identifies a type as being an actuator endpoint that provides information about the running application. Endpoints can be exposed over a variety of technologies including JMX and HTTP.

Most @Endpoint classes will declare one or more @ReadOperation, @WriteOperation, @DeleteOperation annotated methods which will be automatically adapted to the exposing technology (JMX, Spring MVC, Spring WebFlux, Jersey etc.).

@Endpoint represents the lowest common denominator for endpoints and intentionally limits the sorts of operation methods that may be defined in order to support the broadest possible range of exposure technologies. If you need deeper support for a specific technology you can either write an endpoint that is filtered to a certain technology, or provide extension for the broader endpoint.
