I have added the Custom VM Option -Dide.run.dashboard=true in Help -> Edit custom VM options. But I cannot seem to find this "Run Dashboard" for Spring boot that which is mentioned in this JetBrains blog post https://blog.jetbrains.com/idea/2017/05/intellij-idea-2017-2-eap-run-dashboard-for-spring-boot/

I have tried looking at JetBrains blog posts but cannot seem to find what happened to this Dashboard in 2018.2 version of Intellij IDEA.

  • Do you use the Community or the paid version? Only the Ultimate contains spring features. Proof: https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/download – szab.kel Sep 10 '18 at 09:44
  • @appl3r I am checking out the Ultimate version's (2018.2) free trial – Aseem Bansal Sep 10 '18 at 11:38

    The behavior was changed in a new release. Follow this advice: https://stackoverflow.com/a/49424397/8958060 – Petr Rastegaev Sep 10 '18 at 20:00
  • @PetrRastegaev I am not seeing that option at all. I saw that answer but "Run Dashboard" is not coming at all anywhere even in the action dropdown. – Aseem Bansal Sep 11 '18 at 15:11

My Intellij IDEA version is 2018.1, and I encounter the same problem as first. It did not work after changing -Dide.run.dashboard=true to idea.exe.vmoptions and idea64.exe.vmoptions.

I found another way to get "Run Dashboard" back again.

In your Spring Boot or Spring Cloud project, open the workspace.xml in .idea directory (in the top level directory): workspace.xml

Find the tag component with the name property RunDashboard, at first, it should be like this:

<component name="RunDashboard">
    <option name="ruleStates">
      <list>
        <RuleState>
          <option name="name" value="ConfigurationTypeDashboardGroupingRule" />
        </RuleState>
        <RuleState>
          <option name="name" value="StatusDashboardGroupingRule" />
        </RuleState>
      </list>
    </option>
</component>

Next, add the following code to the component tag, along with the existing option tag:

<option name="configurationTypes">
    <set>
        <option value="SpringBootApplicationConfigurationType" />
    </set>
</option>

Finally, it should be like this:

<component name="RunDashboard">
    <option name="configurationTypes">
        <set>
            <option value="SpringBootApplicationConfigurationType" />
        </set>
    </option>
    <option name="ruleStates">
        <list>
        <RuleState>
            <option name="name" value="ConfigurationTypeDashboardGroupingRule" />
        </RuleState>
        <RuleState>
            <option name="name" value="StatusDashboardGroupingRule" />
        </RuleState>
        </list>
    </option>
</component>

Then, just press Ctrl+S (Save this file), and the "Run Dashboard" will pop up!
