Recover deleted documents

When a user deletes a document (workbook, data model, or dataset), Sigma removes it from its organization workspace and folder, and users can no longer access its contents. If the deleted document must be accessed at a later time, you can easily recover it for continued use.

This document explains how to recover a deleted document.

User requirements

To recover a deleted document, you must be assigned the Admin account type.

If you don't have the required permission, you can share the document URL with an organization admin and request document recovery.
