Bitbucket Pipeline build cannot find a deployment environment

Platform Notice: Cloud Only - This article only applies to Atlassian products on the cloud platform.

Summary

The user tries to run a Bitbucket Pipeline build for a specific deployment environment, and the build fails with the following error:

Configuration error The environment '{environment-name}' in your bitbucket-pipelines.yml doesn’t match any environment defined in your settings.

Either update your yml, or your settings, to use the same name.

(Auto-migrated image: description temporarily unavailable)

Cause

The most likely scenario is that:

  • The repository doesn't have a deployment environment with the same name referenced in the pipelines YML file.

  • The deployment environment has a blank space at the beginning or end of the name.

Solution

If confirmed that the repository has an environment with the expected name, please check the environment name for blank spaces. The user should be able to rerun the build once the blank spaces at the beginning or end of the name have been removed.
