# Deploying

When you finished working on search implementation & carefully tested everything using [Nosto debug toolbar](https://help.nosto.com/en/articles/1441625-how-to-use-the-nosto-debug-toolbar), it's time to deploy everything.

### Production Deployment

The Nosto CLI only handles preview deployments. To promote your changes to production:

1. **Test thoroughly** in preview mode
2. **Navigate** to Nosto Admin UI > Search > Templates
3. **Click** "Deploy latest and launch live"

> **Important:** Always test your changes thoroughly in preview mode before promoting to production, as this affects all your store visitors. It can take up to 15 minutes for deployment to be visible.

#### Deployment Safety

* **Preview First**: All CLI uploads go to preview mode initially
* **Admin Control**: Production deployments require manual approval in the Admin UI
* **Rollback Available**: Previous versions can be restored from the Admin UI if needed

### Rollback previous deployment

If the most recent update doesn't work properly, you have the option to revert to any previous update. Reverting won't alter the source, which means you can deploy the latest changes again simply by clicking on the main deployment button.

#### How to revert deployment

1. Navigate to the `Nosto Admin UI` > `Search` > `Templates`
2. Click on the desired deployment, click on `...` and then on `Redeploy`

### Disable Templates

If your latest update doesn't work and you don't have a previous working version to go back to, or if you want to completely remove the search function, you can turn off the search templates for a temporary period.

Reverting won't alter the source, which means you can deploy the latest changes again simply by clicking on the main deployment button.

**How to disable templates?**

1. Navigate to the `Nosto Admin UI` > `Search` > `Templates`
2. Click on the `Disable Templates` button.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.nosto.com/techdocs/implementing-nosto/implement-search/deployment-and-testing/deploying.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
