I'm having issues deploying a branch to a subdomain

Hi, @sarafraghav, I think part of your issue might have been that Netlify DNS wasn’t activated:

[Support Guide] How to detect and fix inactive Netlify DNS zones

Last reviewed by Netlify Support - August, 2023 What is an “inactive Netlify DNS zone”? First, it would help to define the term “DNS zone”. Quoting wikipedia, it says: A DNS zone is any distinct, contiguous portion of the domain name space in the Domain Name System (DNS) for which administrative responsibility has been delegated to a single manager. To paraphrase, a DNS zone is a collection of all the DNS records for a production domain. When you add production domains to Netlify DNS we c…

It could also have been time to live (TTL) value related:

[Support Guide] Why do DNS / SSL changes take up to 48 hours to propagate? (TTL)

Last reviewed by Netlify Support on August 2023 How do time to live (TTL) values affect changes to DNS records? People often ask why the changes to DNS (Domain Name System) records are not taking effect. The answer to this often involves a core mechanism of how DNS functions - the “time to live” (TTL) values for the DNS records themselves. This topic is here to answer those questions! ! If you’d prefer a TL:DR; in the form of a video, check this out: [WHAT IS PROPAGATION? - Netl…

Note, the current DNS service for this domain is not using Netlify DNS and the time to live is 6 hours (21600 seconds):

fillmycalendar.net.	21600	IN	NS	salvador.porkbun.com.
fillmycalendar.net.	21600	IN	NS	fortaleza.porkbun.com.
fillmycalendar.net.	21600	IN	NS	curitiba.porkbun.com.
fillmycalendar.net.	21600	IN	NS	maceio.porkbun.com.

This means, if you do change the DNS service to Netlify DNS, it can and will take up to six hours for those changes to take effect. Did you wait six hours before and are you sure Netlify DNS was activated?

I ask because it isn’t active now and I have no way of seeing the history of your DNS configuration at the domain registrar - porkbun.com.

I’m also not sure if you are trying to use our branch subdomain feature or not. If so, note this requires either a) Netlify DNS to be used or b) for the manual process below to be used instead:

[Support Guide] How to use Netlify’s branch deploy feature without Netlify DNS

Last reviewed by Netlify Support Staff: August 2023 So - you’ve discovered the concept of branch subdomains and want to use them! But you can’t use Netlify’s DNS Hosting? Never fear, there is a way to do this and this post will explain how in detail! Please note, however, that going this route means missing out on single click setup and all the goodness it includes - for example, getting an SSL certificate configured automatically. We also have Automatic Deploy Subdomains, which allows users …
