Intellij cannot run Spring app with a certain dependency

I'm working on a webapp with spring and maven and want to be able to run the application from within a local tomcat server and intellij. This dependency seems to be the culprit.

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-tomcat</artifactId>
    <scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>

when I remove this dependency the application runs fine in intellij because of the other dependency but then can't run on tomcat.

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
</dependency>

Can I set something up to automatically use the right dependency for intellij?

You can setup maven profile in the pom.xml, then use specific profile for Intellij. Intellij allows you to select the profile while running the build.

<profiles>
 <profile>
    <id>intellij</id>
    …
    <dependencies>
        <dependency>…</dependency>
    </dependencies>
    …
 </profile>
 <profile>
    <id>release</id>
    …
    <dependencies>
        <dependency>…</dependency>
    </dependencies>
    …
 </profile>
