Configuring Spring Boot application to run a Web Interface on HTTPS and Web Services on HTTP

I’m new to Spring Boot, and might not have the grasp on all of spring basis.

My application serves a set of webservices and have a web interface to display some of the data.I’m facing an issue with configuring my application to run both the web interface and web services with different protocols(http/https).This is needed since the web service clients only can run as http(they will be updated in the future).

Here’s my setup:Web Interface (UI) is currently running at endpoint – localhost:port/web/**Web Services (API) is currently running at endpoint – localhost:port/ws/**

Currently my application work if the full application(both web interface and webservices) runs as http.

My application endpoints is configured as follows:

@Bean    public SecurityFilterChain securityFilterChain(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {        // Disable LDAP login for All endpoint web services (/ws/**)        http                .requiresChannel(channelConfigurer -> channelConfigurer.anyRequest().requiresInsecure())                .authorizeHttpRequests(request -> request.requestMatchers(new AntPathRequestMatcher("/ws/**"))                        .permitAll());        // Enforce LDAP login for the web management interface (/web/**)        http                .requiresChannel(channelConfigurer -> channelConfigurer.anyRequest().requiresSecure())                .authorizeHttpRequests(request -> request.requestMatchers(new AntPathRequestMatcher("/web/**"))                        .authenticated().anyRequest().fullyAuthenticated())                .formLogin(Customizer.withDefaults());        http.csrf(AbstractHttpConfigurer::disable);        return http.build();    }

Any guidance or examples would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance.

To solve the problem I have tried:

1. Setup the application to use https - but is affected the full application(both web interface and webservices) and could not get it seperated.

2. I have try to force https to only the web interface endpoint - localhost:port/web/**But it did not work.

    @Bean    public SecurityFilterChain secureSecurityFilterChain(HttpSecurity httpSecurity) throws Exception {        // Configure the security filter chain for secure (HTTPS) requests.        return httpSecurity.securityMatcher("/web/**")                .requiresChannel(channelConfigure ->                        channelConfigure                                .requestMatchers(ServletRequest::isSecure)                                //.requiresInsecure() // Require HTTP                                //.requiresSecure() // Require HTTPS                )                .authorizeHttpRequests(authorizeRequests ->                        authorizeRequests                                .anyRequest().permitAll() // Allow all secure requests                )                .build();    }
