Error codeView as Markdown

The deploy was blocked by a safety check. Guv stopped this deploy because the Safety Centre found something serious, most often a secret key visible in your built client code. Shipping it would expose the key to every visitor.

  • HTTP status: 422 Unprocessable Content
  • CLI exit code: 3 (forbidden or denied by policy)
  • Retry: not as it is; the same request will fail the same way until the cause is fixed

Fix the Safety Centre finding {check_id}, or mark the variable public: true if it is meant to be visible.

  1. Open the Safety Centre for the project; the finding names the file and the variable.
  2. Move the value to a server-side variable, rotate the key with its provider, then deploy again.

Words in {braces} are filled in from the error response, which names the exact resource.
