I am using spring boot actuator library and can't seem to figure out the exact difference between the response returned when I hit the resource URI /actuator/loggers/{logger_id}.

The returned response is usally like,

{
    "configuredLevel": null,
    "effectiveLevel": INFO
}

What do configuredLevel and effectiveLevel indicate here?

The configuredLevel is the explicitly configured logging level for that logger and is null if not explicitly configured. If the configuredLevel is not null, the effectiveLevel is equal to the configuredLevel. If the configuredLevel is null, the effectiveLevel is equal to the logging level of the logger's parent.
