Spring Boot Rest API validation not working

I have the following dependency in the pom.xml for spring boot validation and controller method argument updated with @Valid annotation but still no validation errors when I submit a request with null or not empty values. Any Idea like why validation not getting trigged even though hibernate validation library on the classpath.

<dependency>
        <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-validation</artifactId>
    </dependency>

  @RequestMapping("hello")
    public ResponseEntity<String> message(@Valid @RequestBody MyRequest request)
    {





 public class MyRequest {
    @NotNull(message = "Client ID is mandatory")
    @NotEmpty
    private String clientId;

    @NotEmpty private String employId;

Everything seems fine just add @Validated annotation at Controller class level. I hope this works.

anotations @NotEmpty and @NotNull and @Valid must be imported from javax.validation .... They are all in the jakarta.Validation api specifications otherwise it won't work
