Restore Deleted Content

Note: By default, the Trash feature stores deleted content such as Content Types, Entries, and Assets for 14 days before it is permanently deleted. If this period has passed, contact the Customer Support team with the necessary details for restoration.

If you have accidentally deleted stacks, entries, assets, or content types, the Contentstack Customer Support team can assist with restoring the data. To process your request, you will need to provide specific details about the deleted modules.

Note: Only a Stack Owner/Admin or Organization Owner/Admin can submit or approve requests to restore content.
