Summary
When applying Assurance data (Active Deviations), merged (unavailable) branches are still shown in the branch selection dropdown. Selecting a merged branch causes the assurance data application to fail.

• Create a branch with any data and merge it (at least one merged branch is required to reproduce)
• Navigate to Assurance → Active Deviations and select any data
• Click Bulk Apply
• On the next screen, open the branch dropdown and observe that merged branches are listed (unexpected)
• Select the merged branch created in Step 1 and click Apply
• Observe that the assurance data application fails

Expected Behavior

Merged (unavailable) branches should not appear in the dropdown when applying assurance data.

Observed Behavior

Merged (unavailable) branches should available in the dropdown when applying assurance data which will result in failure

@LadyFromMars actually thinking on this I'm not completely sure which dropdown you are talking about. There is the branch dropdown at the top of NetBox. It will show all branches, even if merged but you can't actually click on already merged branches - they are still there though as you can go an revert the branch.

When you say "Select the merged branch created in Step 1 and click Apply" where are you selecting it? You should not be able to select it in the top dropdown of NetBox (you can't normally). If this is a dropdown in Assurance then it is an Assurance issue. Where are you selecting this?
