[말랑괄이]

thx for this great vedio!! um...i followed it well.. but in building docket bean, paths is "/cloudvendor/*" right?
but, when i run it, in document, there are only GET(by id) and DELETE method in controller..
so i updated the paths to "/cloudvendor". and then run it. but in document, there are only GET(all), POST, PUT method in controller..
so i asked this to chat gpt, gpt taught me to update paths to "/cloudvendor/**" . so i did it, and all methods appear.
but it is not good that..right? how can i do?? can you explain how to do it??
