For:

Spring Tool Suite 4 

Version: 4.17.2.RELEASE
Build Id: 202301310704
Revision: 4c43862ec9482cb5c289960e5514998e59d2f1fe

For any Spring Boot project, if is executed the app through:

  • Right click -> Run As -> Spring Boot App

The app runs as expected. And if is need it to do some editions, is enough do

  • Top menu -> Run ->Run As Configurations

The dialog window opened has the title with the name: Run Configurations

If is used the Boot Dashboard view, and is selected the same Spring Boot project, and through the top menu is done click in
the pencil icon it opens the same dialog window but it has the title with the name: Debug Configurations.

Observe here that now is Debug Configurations and not Run Configurations. Is it expected?

Of course, if is used

  • Top Menu -> Run

Then is possible open the same dialog window but according if is selected either Run Configurations... or Debug Configurations...
