How can I make IntelliJ IDEA update my dependencies from Maven

Question

When I manually add dependencies in the pom xml of my project  let Maven download the dependencies and let IntelliJ build the module  IntelliJ complains about missing libraries  At the same time Maven can find the dependent JARs and build the project   How can I tell IntelliJ to use the libs which are downloaded by 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    Open the project view in IntelliJ Right click the pom xml file and select Maven - Reimport If this works for you IntelliJ will add the dependencies to the project Check the if the dependencies you need are added in  File - Project Structure - Project Settings - Libraries and File - Project Structure - Modules - Dependencies
