Feature Request / Question: Selective Promotion Exclusion During App Deployment

gyutaelee

Hello,

We're currently using the Deployment feature to propagate configuration from our dev environment to staging and production. We noticed that the deployment options allow us to exclude certain categories (e.g., Item Catalog, Leaderboards, Global Entities), which is very helpful.

However, we ran into an issue: a "Remove Ads" promotion that only exists in our dev environment was accidentally deployed to staging, and it immediately triggered a popup for users because the promotion conditions were met right away.

We'd like to ask:

Is there currently any way to exclude specific promotions (by name or ID) from a deployment, similar to how individual Custom Entities can be controlled per-record?
If this is not currently supported, would it be possible to add a per-promotion deployment toggle — similar to the Custom Entities behavior — as a feature request?

As a workaround, we're manually deleting the unwanted promotion from staging/production after each deployment, but this is error-prone and easy to miss.

Thank you!

Hi, thanks for the detailed report. At the moment, there isn’t a per-promotion exclusion toggle for deployments; the currently recommended way is to keep Preserve Products+Pricing & Promotions in the target environment. Your request for selective promotion exclusion makes sense. I’ll pass this along as a feature request for the team to consider.
