Deployments management
Page summary:
Deployment triggers can be manual or automatic on git pushes, with the ability to cancel active builds from dashboard or CLI.
The creation of a new Strapi Cloud project automatically trigger the deployment of that project. After that, deployments can be:
- manually triggered whenever needed, from the Cloud dashboard or from the CLI,
- or automatically triggered everytime a new commit is pushed to the branch, if the Strapi Cloud project is connected to a git repository and the "deploy on push" option is enabled (see Project settings).
Ongoing deployments can also be manually canceled if needed.
Triggering a new deployment
To manually trigger a new deployment for your project, click on the Trigger deployment button always displayed in the right corner of a project dashboard's header. This action will add a new card in the Deployments tab, where you can monitor the status and view the deployment logs live (see Deploy history and logs).
Cancelling a deployment
If for any reason you want to cancel an ongoing and unfinished deployment:
- Go to the Deployment details page of the latest triggered deployment (see Accessing log details).
- Click on the Cancel deployment button in the top right corner. The status of the deployment will automatically change to Canceled.
You can also cancel a deployment from the Deployments tab which lists the deployments history. The card of ongoing deployment with the Building status will display a 
button for cancelling the deployment.
