SpringBoot the method requestmatchers() is undefined for the type httpsecurity

Hello team,

We are updating the spring version from 2.7.10 to 3.0.6 as we are updating the Java version from 8 to 17.

error mtaBuild - [ERROR] /home/vsts/work/1/s/Skill/srv/src/main/java/com/sap/c4p/rm/skill/config/HealthSecurityConfig.java:[23,22] cannot find symbol
error mtaBuild - [ERROR]   symbol:   method requestMatchers()
error mtaBuild - [ERROR]   location: variable security of type org.springframework.security.config.annotation.web.builders.HttpSecurity
error mtaBuild - [ERROR] -> [Help 1]
error mtaBuild - [ERROR] 
error mtaBuild - [ERROR] To see the full stack trace of the errors, re-run Maven with the -e switch.

This is how our statement looks like:

return security.requestMatchers().mvcMatchers("/actuator/health")....

Please help in resolving the issue?

Please follow the recommendations in the migration guide. In particular, upgrading your Spring Boot 2.7 app to Spring Security 5.8 will provide you with deprecation warnings and suggested replacements for the APIs that have been removed in Spring Security 6.0.
