Hi Koushik, Thank you. Just an update, external propety file is taken only when you are running java command from the folder which contains both jar and property file.

As in "java -jar build/libs/demo.jar" will not take property file placed in build/libs. I have also, tried adding spring config location argument but this results in exception

Thank you. Is there a way to prevent the override (something like override=false) for some specific properties

[jaihind]

Great content but please create a playlist for this course.

Can you demonstrate how to access spring data source properties from cloud config

[nehajain]

Thanks.. good content.. Can we see it in white intellij theme . It is more visible .

[vivekguptacs]

Thank you sir, these days, this question is asked commonly in interview.

We can use spring-cloud-configure-server also. Where we link this server to git. Git will have property file.. our clien use this property file. We need to just use Refresh actuator for this.
