- How can I recover deleted stories?
There are two ways how you can recover deleted stories in the UI:
You can check the trash can which will be available after installing the trash can app from our store https://www.storyblok.com/apps/trashcan When clicking on the symbol left from the "+Folder" button you can see which stories and folders are in it: You can then select the items you want to restore and click on the "Restore" button right to the "Select" checkbox:
In the case that you can't find the item(s) in the trash can you can also take a look into the activity log which can be found on the dashboard: When you can't see in the "Recent activities" on the dashboard what you want to restore you can click on any item in the list which will bring you on a new page with the name "Activity Details" which shows you a short summary of the log entry. Now you press the back button so you come to the complete list of log entries: In that list you need to search for "destroyed Story" entries and the name of the story in parentheses: Now you can restore the story by clicking on "Restore this Story":
When you have a subscription on your space you can make it shorter by installing the "Activities" app from our store https://www.storyblok.com/apps/activity which will create a shortcut into the left menu to the complete list:
