In the context of AWS, you can rectify this particular issue by using the AWS command line interface switch profile functionalities, by using the several steps which are given below:-

You would need to identify the correct profile for the environment which you want to deploy.

You can now use the “aws configure” command with the “- - profile” option for setting the correct band-appropriate profile.

Try to confirm that the profile has been switched successfully by checking the files of Configuration or you can use of running a test command with the new profile.

Once you have found that the correct file is set, then you can proceed with the deployment process to ensure it is done in the intended environment without any disruptions.
