I created a Reactjs NextJS app in the Amplify console, and I am trying to pull it. I did have some problems initially because I am using AWS SSO to sign in, but after using aws-export-credentials I was able to get around that exporting credentials to a new profile, not sure if that has anything to do with it.
My app is having a front-end only, but when I try to pull it, it complains that no backend exists.
Cannot find any backend environment in the Amplify Console App next-app.
Failed to pull the backend.
Cannot find any backend environment in the Amplify Console App next-app.

I will otherwise make the app from the cli instead but still wanting to understand why this has happened.
