# Release statuses

Every status a release can have, and which releases you can roll back to.

<!-- Generated by `php artisan docs:generate` from the code. Do not edit this file by hand. -->

A release moves through these statuses from the moment you deploy. Only a release that served visitors can be put back, because only then is its image known to work.
