Can't import Spring Cloud dependencies for enabling Eureka client - spring-cloud

Question

I work on app in which I try to register Eureka client on server but stuck on the first step where I need dependency which make enable #EnableEurekaClient annotation.
I followed cloud.spring.io instructions which did not work:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-cloud-starter-eureka</artifactId>
</dependency>
II) I then found some latest stack & tried (as follows) which did not work as well:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-cloud-starter-netflix-eureka-client</artifactId>
</dependency>
I wonder, as all folder suddenly disappear in case I put above dependency in the pom.xml (I use Intellij)

You need to add the Spring Cloud BOM to your pom.xml as follows:
<dependencyManagement>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-cloud-dependencies</artifactId>
<version>2020.0.3</version>
<type>pom</type>
<scope>import</scope>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>
Once this is added, all Spring Cloud dependencies including spring-cloud-starter-netflix-eureka-client will resolve, and you should be able to use annotations such as #EnableDiscoveryClient for activating the Eureka discovery client.
