yaml key value pair with dollar syntax

I saw a code which is present in a Spring boot application's yaml file

task:
  follow: ${name:Rohit}

I know task.follow is the key but didn't understand ${name:Rohit}. What does it refer to and how to use it.

It means that the key task.follow should take the value from Environment Property name, but if it was not defined while your spring boot app starts up, then it will take the default value Robit.
