It sends data from ascending order But If I want my data in descending order than How can I specify this ?

Address Repository

    public interface AddressRepository extends JpaRepository<Address, Long> 

    {
    }

Perhaps,you can :

localhost:3000/api/addresses?sort={property},desc 

this will help you sort by property desc
