Deploying to pages with github actions: Branch Settings

Hello all I have a question regarding deployment with github actions. I set the branch as branch: production but cloudflare pages is still deploying it as preview How can I get around this? Here is the current .yml file for the github actions 
name: Build and Deploy to Cloudflare Pages on Release

on:
  release:
    types: [created]

jobs:
  deploy:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    permissions:
      contents: read
      deployments: write
    steps:
      # checkout staging branch and build using npm with node 16
      # set process.env.CI = false to prevent build from failing
      - name: Checkout
        uses: actions/checkout@v2
        with:
          ref: staging
      - name: Use Node.js 16
        uses: actions/setup-node@v2
        with:
          node-version: 16
      - name: Set CI to false
        run: echo "CI=false" >> $GITHUB_ENV
      - name: Install dependencies
        run: yarn install
      # npx browserslist@latest --update-db
      - name: update browserslist
        run: npx browserslist@latest --update-db
      - name: Build
        run: yarn build
      - name: Publish to Cloudflare Pages
        uses: cloudflare/pages-action@v1
        with:
          apiToken: ${{ secrets.CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN }}
          accountId: ACCOUNT_ID
          branch: production
          projectName: cortex-web-app
          directory: build

Ok, I solved it with setting branch: main interestingly, pages is not taking production as production deployment. Maybe the wording can be improved there with also allowing production keyword to be deployed to production

IIRC, the default branch is main, but if you set up via wrangler, you should be able to set a different branch as the “main” one
