Answer 1

Add the run configurations to the Configurations available in Run Dashboard list in the Edit Run/Debug Configurations dialog under the Defaults (Templates in the current IDE versions) node:

In Spring Boot projects Run Dashboard becomes enabled automatically if you have more than one run/debug configuration of this type.
