create two method for same url pattern with different arguments

I have scenario where one url "serachUser" may come with two different value (request parameter) userId or UserName.

so for this I have created two methods

public String searchUserById(@RequestParam long userID, Model model) 
public ModelAndView searchUserByName(@RequestParam String userName)

But i am getting Ambiguous mapping found exception. Can Spring handle this situation?

Any way in case of request param null is allowed if you don't pass any value it will be null then you can write your code like:

@RequestMapping(value = "/searchUser", params = {"userID","userName"})
public String searchUserById(@RequestParam long userID,@RequestParam String 
userName, Model model) {    
    if(userID != null){
      //..
    }else{
      // ...
    }

You can use the params parameter to filter by HTTP parameters. In your case it would be something like:

@RequestMapping(value = "/searchUser", params = "userID")
public String searchUserById(@RequestParam long userID, Model model) {
  // ...
}

@RequestMapping(value = "/searchUser", params = "userName")
public ModelAndView searchUserByName(@RequestParam String userName) {
  // ...
}
