import org.yaml.snakeyaml.constructor.Constructor

/*

class Item {
  @BeanProperty var Title: String = ""
  @BeanProperty var Name: String = ""
  override def toString = s"Title: $Title, Name: $Name"
}

object Foo extends App {

  val reader = new java.io.FileReader("items.yaml")

  val yaml = new Yaml(new Constructor(classOf[Item]))
  val docs = yaml.loadAll(reader)// .asScala
  val item = docs.iterator.next.asInstanceOf[Item]

  println(item.getTitle)

}

Finally figured this one out.
I just needed to put @BeanInfo at the start of the class definition.
Nowhere, NOWHERE, mentioned this, and it was not present in any example code I found.

Thank you a lot! Already spent couple of hours of searching.

Man, thanks you a lot! Also spent couple of hours figuring it out

For anyone coming to this recently -- I would now recommend using Circe and it's YAML parser rather than SnakeYaml.

import io.circe.yaml.parser
// plus the rest of regular Circe imports

  @ConfiguredJsonCodec
  case class FooBar(
      @JsonKey("blah_blah") blahBlah: String,
      otherThing: Option[Int]     
  )

  object FooBar { 
    implicit val circeConfig = CirceConfiguration.default
  }
