Pipelines might attempt to create a new Continuous Delivery Environment (CDE) even if the branch is already deployed in the production environment. This occurs when the label of an existing CDE does not match the name of the build branch. The system displays an error if you exhausted your CDE limit.

To avoid creating a new CDE, ensure that the CDE label matches the name of the build branch.
