Maybe this would help

CodePudding user response：

According to your ss you have named the template as field-view.html but in controller you are returning view-fields.

Your code :

package czajka.piotr.restapi.viewcontroller;

import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;

@Controller
public class FieldViewController {

    @RequestMapping("/view-fields")
    public String viewFields()
    {
        return "field-view";
    }
}

Btw when you are making rest api you should use @RestController annotation instead of @Controller. Actually Controller will look for temples and RestController will return actual string or you can write html code too.
