Failing deployment as environment is inactive

• there are two kinds of environments: active and inactive
• when you push code to production (main/master) it will automatically become an active environment with a generated URL
• every branch you create through the management console off of that pushed production will also become active, inheriting production data in the process.

If you run into this issue during deployment:

**Environment Inactive:**
URL unavailable
This environment does not have a URL as the status is inactive. You can update your status in general settings.

You'll need to activate the environment:

1. Go to the Dashboard, find the inactive environment, and click on it to view its details
2. Look for an “Activate” or “Start” button to make the environment active
3. Once activated, the URL should become available, and your app will be accessible
