This operation creates a new property activation, which deactivates any current activation. After a necessary delay, this activates your property version's rule tree and set of hostnames across Akamai's network of edge servers, modifying how your edge content responds to end-user requests. If there's a problem with the property you activated, you may have the option to fall back to the previous version. Within an hour of activating, POSTing another activation with "useFastFallback":true in the request object disables the current activation and falls back to the previous version. This fallback takes a few seconds, but the option is available only if there have been no changes to the set of property hostnames, as indicated by the canFastFallback member.
