In the Repository interface looks like this
#RepositoryRestResource(path = "/users")public interface userRespository extends PagingAndSortingRepository<UserEntity, Long> {
#Query("select u from UserEntity u where u.username=?1")
UserEntity findByUsername(String username);
}

You have to mention path='endpoint name' without using '/' in #RepositoryRestResource. You have to use #RepositoryRestResource(path = "users"), it's direct spring MVC to create RESTful endpoints at /user
