Cloud Code is an extension that integrates your Apigee API\ndevelopment, testing, and deployment into the\n[Visual Studio Code (VS Code) IDE](https://code.visualstudio.com/),\nincluding verifying the functionality through unit and manual testing using the Apigee Emulator\n(local runtime).\n\nDuring **local development**, use Apigee in Cloud Code to develop your API proxies and verify the functionality\nthrough unit and manual testing using the Apigee Emulator (local runtime).\n\nDuring **archive deployment**, deploy to Apigee for integration testing and release, leveraging an archive that contains the complete environment and API proxy configuration.\n|\n| **Preview\n| --- Archive deployment**\n|\n|\n| This feature is subject to the \"Pre-GA Offerings Terms\" in the General Service Terms section\n| of the [Service Specific Terms](/terms/service-terms#1).\n|\n| Pre-GA features are available \"as is\" and might have limited support.\n|\n| For more information, see the\n| [launch stage descriptions](/products#product-launch-stages).\n\nBenefits of local development with Apigee\n-----------------------------------------\n\nThe benefits of local development with Apigee include:\n\n- [Use Gemini Code Assist](#gemini-apigee-local-dev) for faster API design, development, and management.\n- Quickly iterate through build and test cycles without impact to other dependent applications\n- Create and run repeatable unit tests that verify that the code is producing the intended outcome\n- Identify the set of changes that are deployed as part of a release\n- Track who made changes to a specific deployment\n\nGemini Code Assist for Apigee API management\n--------------------------------------------\n\nApigee can include API assistive functionality for API design and\nmanagement in Cloud Code, with [Gemini Code Assist](/apigee/docs/api-platform/get-started/gemini-code-assist), including:\n\n- Using the @Apigee tool in Gemini Code Assist, generate [OpenAPI specification (OAS), version 3.0](https://github.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification/blob/main/versions/3.0.3.md) specs from prompts describing the APIs. Spec development can include contextual information from your Apigee API hub enterprise context to inform spec development.\n- Gemini Code Assist uses your enterprise API hub catalog when generating specifications.\n- View and edit the generated spec.\n- Test the API with mock servers. Use a local mock server for testing in your local development environment. Create a remote mock server for a persistent test service that allows multiple simultaneous developers to test the API.\n- Add APIs to your enterprise API hub catalog.\n- Edit existing OpenAPI specs using prompts by invoking the @Apigee tool in Gemini Code Assist\n- Create an Apigee API proxy from your spec in the local development environment.\n\nTo use this functionality, you must set up Gemini Code Assist for Apigee.\nSee\n[Use Gemini Code Assist with\nCloud Code and Apigee](/apigee/docs/api-platform/local-development/setup#gemini).\n\nPrevented actions with archive deployment\n-----------------------------------------\n\nTo support local development, you must [enable archive deployment](/apigee/docs/api-platform/deploy/manage-archive-deployments#enable-archive-deployment) for an environment in your Apigee organization.\nWhen you enable archive deployment in an Apigee environment, you will be **prevented from performing\ncertain actions within the environment** to prevent conflicts with local development. For complete details, see [Summary of prevented actions with archive deployment](/apigee/docs/api-platform/fundamentals/environments-overview#archive-prevented-actions)."]]
