I have tried to create new backend environment called ‘dev’.

Describe the bug

After creating new backend environment called ‘dev’ I tried to push everything. It failed multiple times. I tried to push individual backend features one by one, also without success. After some time I decided to delete it. It has been deleted (I suppose) on the backend. In fact I don’t see anything in Amplify Studio for example. But when issuing amplify env list, it is still there.

$ amplify env list

| Environments |
| ------------ |
| *staging     |
| prod         |
| dev          |

So I try to switch to it or remove again but it says Environment name is invalid

$ amplify env checkout dev
🛑 Environment name is invalid.

Resolution: Run amplify env list to get a list of valid environments.

$ amplify env remove dev
🛑 Environment name is invalid.

I’ve tried to see if there is anything in my “backend” folder, but there is nothing. For example, in team-provider-info.json there are only 2 environments listed: “prod” and “staging” and no “dev”.

At this point I don’t know how to get rid of it or how to switch into dev, because I actually still need it to be created.

Expected behavior

Remove env should work or there should be a way to remove it from list and create new with the same name.

Reproduction steps

$ amplify env list

| Environments |
| ------------ |
| *staging     |
| prod         |
| dev          |

$ amplify env checkout dev
🛑 Environment name is invalid.
