Can IntelliJ IDEA debugger set breakpoints by itself?

I am trying to figure out which methods of which class are triggered when i send an api get request to the web application i'm working on. Is it possible to configure the debugger in such a way that it automatically sets a breakpoint at the controller method that is first triggered when sending the api request? For me that would be a quick way to determine where to start my debugging quest. I'm using Java.

you can try wildcard method breakpoint for all methods of the handler class, it will trigger on any class method invocation:

  • go to breakpoints dialog
  • click +
  • select "Java method breakpoints"
  • enter handler class name and * as a method name:
