Thanks for your review.

I also find some old link in application.yml. Is there any way to add new item with same id or it will be changed when Spring 3.2.x goes to End of Support?

I have to look into this. FYI: When spring-projects/spring-boot#41632 is resolved, this won't be a problem.

[mhalbritter]

It's possible by using a custom HelpDocumentCustomizer, but there are a lot of such links in the application.yaml. I don't think it's worth the time to fix all of them for 3.2.x and 3.3.x. I hope spring-projects/spring-boot#41632 resolves soon, which solves that problem at a central place.

And when 3.4.x is released in November, 3.2.x will drop out of OSS support, and then we can remove the remaining ifs in the code.

[ngocnhan-tran1996]

Thanks for your information. But I think Link.java need to be improved for multiple version document, add field comparisonRange for this purpose or something like that?

[mhalbritter]

Yeah, if we would like to specify the version range for links in the metadata YAML. But as I said, I'd not go down that route and instead wait for Spring Boot to fix the redirects.
