I am migrating an application to Spring Boot 3 that uses Hibernate Envers with @Audited
annotations. But I cannot find Spring Data Envers after version 2.7 which go to end of support.
https://spring.io/projects/spring-data-envers#support
It looks like Envers has been integrated with Spring Data JPA but I can't find any matching annotations in this. Is it still possible to use @Audited
annotations in Spring Boot 3?
As of version 3.0, this project has been merged into Spring Data JPA. https://spring.io/projects/spring-data-envers pom.xml

As I know, you have to add hibernate-envers
dependency to be able to audit the table:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate-envers</artifactId>
<version>6.4.2.Final</version> //latest version, change if it’s needed
</dependency>
After that you will be able to use what you want.
