Cannot change Dynamic Web Module to 3.1 when using Spring boot 2.1.1

I'm creating a web application with Spring boot 2.1.1. As soon as I add Spring boot 2.1.1 dependency, the Dynamic Web Module changed from 3.1 (the version I need) to 4.0.

What should I do to set Dynamic Web Module to 3.1.

I tried to edit org.eclipse.wst.common.project.facet.core.xml, clean and update maven dependencies, but the Dynamic Web Module come back to 4.0.

I suppose there is a child dependeny in Spring boot 2.1.1 that force the Dynamic Web Module to be 4.0.

did you ever find a solution to this issue ? – confusedntired
Unfortunately no. I just get that the problem depends on Spring boot 2.1.1 dependencies. It has some java libraries versions that can't "run" with a lower version of Dynamic Web Module 4.0. – MDP

I am using Spring Boot version 2.2.4.
I changed: .settings/org.eclipse.wst.common.project.facet.core.xml
under my project folder.
was:<installed facet="jst.web" version="4.0"/>

to:<installed facet="jst.web" version="3.1"/>

But always that I execute maven update I have to change it again.
Before change I close my eclipse.
