CDE already exists. What can I do?

Error message:

CDE environment with name CDE-xxxx already exists                                                                                

Resolution 1:

If a merge request cannot be declined/merged immediately for some reason, one way is to stop the CDE environment:

1. Log in to Code Studio.
2. Navigate to Environments.
3. Determine the respective environment with the same feature branch name, and stop the environment.
4. Wait for a few minutes for the current pipeline to succeed, and to delete the existing CDE with the same name.
5. Make some minor changes to the current feature’s merge request to re-initiate the pipeline with the CDE creation job.

Resolution 2:

1. Rename the existing CD environment that is pointing to the same source branch from Acquia Cloud.
2. Make some minor changes to the current feature’s merge request to re-initiate the pipeline with CDE creation job.
