Rolling Back a Bad Release

How to mark a release as rolled back and use the AI Rollback Advisor.


Manual Rollback

From the release detail page, click the Roll Back button. This marks the release as "Rolled Back" with a timestamp. It does not perform an actual deployment — that's your CI/CD's job. The status is for tracking purposes.

AI Rollback Advisor

Before rolling back, consult the AI:

  1. Open the release detail page.
  2. Click Rollback Advisor.
  3. The AI evaluates error severity, user impact, and trend direction.

The advisor recommends one of:

  • Roll back immediately — critical errors affecting many users
  • Monitor — errors exist but are limited in scope
  • Fix forward — the error can be patched without rolling back

Each recommendation includes reasoning and risk assessment.

Undoing a Rollback

If you marked a release as rolled back by mistake, click Undo Rollback to restore its "Deployed" status.

Best Practices

  • Register releases for every deployment, including hotfixes
  • Use the AI Rollback Advisor before making a decision
  • After rolling back, deploy a fix and register it as a new release
  • Compare the rollback release with the previous stable release to understand the full impact
