Rollback deployment
Roll live traffic back to a previous deployment. deploymentId is the
deployment to roll back TO; the app's current deployment is used as
the rollback source automatically.
The target deployment must be ready, not already shutting down, belong to
the production environment, and must not itself be the current deployment.
After a rollback the app is marked as rolled back, which prevents new
deployments from automatically taking over live traffic. Promote the
rolled-back deployment (or a newer one) to clear this state.
Rollback runs as a durable workflow: this endpoint returns once the
rollback is accepted. Poll getDeployment or listDeployments to observe
the result.
Required Permissions
Your root key must have one of the following permissions:
environment.*.rollback_deployment(to roll back deployments in any environment)environment.<environment_id>.rollback_deployment(to roll back deployments in a specific environment)

A human-readable explanation specific to this occurrence of the problem. This provides detailed information about what went wrong and potential remediation steps. The message is intended to be helpful for developers troubleshooting the issue.
HTTP status code that corresponds to this error. This will match the status code in the HTTP response. Common codes include
400 (Bad Request), 401 (Unauthorized), 403 (Forbidden), 404 (Not Found), 409 (Conflict), and 500 (Internal Server Error).A short, human-readable summary of the problem type. This remains constant from occurrence to occurrence of the same problem and should be used for programmatic handling.
A URI reference that identifies the problem type. This provides a stable identifier for the error that can be used for documentation lookups and programmatic error handling. When followed, this URI should provide human-readable documentation for the problem type.
List of individual validation errors that occurred in the request. Each error provides specific details about what failed validation, where the error occurred in the request, and suggestions for fixing it. This granular information helps developers quickly identify and resolve multiple issues in a single request without having to make repeated API calls.

JSON path indicating exactly where in the request the error occurred. This helps pinpoint the problematic field or parameter. Examples include:
- 'body.name' (field in request body)
- 'body.items[3].tags' (nested array element)
- 'path.apiId' (path parameter)
- 'query.limit' (query parameter)
Use this location to identify exactly which part of your request needs correction.
Detailed error message explaining what validation rule was violated. This provides specific information about why the field or parameter was rejected, such as format errors, invalid values, or constraint violations.
A human-readable suggestion describing how to fix the error. This provides practical guidance on what changes would satisfy the validation requirements. Not all validation errors include fix suggestions, but when present, they offer specific remediation advice.
