For me it didn t work after doing all of the steps suggested in the question and in the top answer  Initially the import didn t work  and then when I restarted IntelliJ  I got these messages from the Gradle Plugin   Gradle DSL method not found   annotationProcessor    Possible causes  lt ul gt  lt li gt The project  wq-handler-service  may be using a version of the Android Gradle plug-in that does not contain the method  e g   testCompile  was added in 1 1 0   Upgrade plugin to version 2 3 2 and sync project lt  li gt  lt li gt The project  wq-handler-service  may be using a version of Gradle that does not contain the method  Open Gradle wrapper file lt  li gt  lt li gt The build file may be missing a Gradle plugin  Apply Gradle plugin lt  li gt    This was weird because I don t develop for Android  just using IntelliJ for Mac OS   To be fair  my build gradle file had these lines in the dependencies section  which I copied from a colleague   compileOnly group   org projectlombok   name   lombok   version   1 16 20  annotationProcessor group   org projectlombok   name   lombok   version   1 16 20    After checking versions  the only thing that completely solved my problem was adding the below to the plugins section of build gradle  which I found on this page   id  net ltgt apt  version  0 15    Looks like it s a      Gradle plugin making it easier safer to use Java annotation processors    ltgt plugin page

There is a lot of really helpful info posted here  but there is one thing that all the posts seem to have wrong  I could not find any  Settings  option under  Files   and I hunted around for 10 minutes looking through all the menus until I found the settings under  IntelliJ IDE   -   Preferences    I don t know if I am using a differing OS version or IntelliJ version from other posters  or if it is because I am a stupid Windows user that doesn t know that settings    preferences on a mac  Did I miss the memo    but I hope this helps you if you aren t finding the paths that other posts are suggesting

If after installing the lombok intellij plugin and enabling annotation processing  if your getter and setters are still not recognised in intellij  do check if the plugin version is compatible with the intellij version you use   It is listed under the Downloads section    https   plugins jetbrains com plugin 6317-lombok-plugin https   plugins jetbrains com plugin 6317-lombok versions

I just found how   I delete the first occurrence of lombok  Slf4j or log where the compiler complains  and wait for the warning the red bubble  of IDEA  suggesting  add the lombok extern Slf4j jar to classpath   Since then all goes well  It seems IDEA likes to complain about lombok
