How can I make IntelliJ IDEA update my dependencies from Maven?

It turns out IntelliJ does not pick up added dependencies from the local Maven repository. We have to tell IntelliJ to reimport the pom.xml.

  1. Open the project view in IntelliJ
  2. Right click the pom.xml file and select Maven – Reimport
  3. If this works for you IntelliJ will add the dependencies to the project
  4. Check the if the dependencies you need are added in
    • File – Project Structure – Project Settings – Libraries
    • and File – Project Structure – Modules – Dependencies
