Override Spring Boot Dependencies
When using Spring for Apache Kafka in a Spring Boot application, the Apache Kafka dependency versions are determined by Spring Boot’s dependency management.
If you wish to use a different version of kafka-clients
or kafka-streams
, and use the embedded kafka broker for testing, you need to override their version used by Spring Boot dependency management; set the kafka.version
property.
Default kafka-clients dependencies for Spring Boot 3.1.x and 3.2.x are 3.4.1 and 3.6.2 respectively.
|
Or, to use a different Spring for Apache Kafka version with a supported Spring Boot version, set the spring-kafka.version
property.

ext['spring-kafka.version'] = '3.3.0'
dependencies {
implementation 'org.springframework.kafka:spring-kafka'
implementation 'org.apache.kafka:kafka-streams' // optional - only needed when using kafka-streams
testImplementation 'org.springframework.kafka:spring-kafka-test'
}
The test scope dependencies are only needed if you are using the embedded Kafka broker in tests.
