How To Restore A Deleted Calendar

The "Restore Calendar" feature allows users to recover deleted calendars and their associated appointments with ease. This functionality addresses a common issue where calendars and appointments are unintentionally deleted, offering a simple way to undo such actions.

Important Points to Note

• Deleting a calendar will also delete all appointments associated with it.
• Appointments deleted within ±30 minutes of the calendar deletion will be restored.
• Appointments deleted outside of this 30-minute window cannot be recovered.
• Audit logs are kept for a maximum of 60 days, so it’s important to restore deleted calendars within this timeframe to prevent data loss.

For example, if a calendar is deleted on May 15th at 10:00 AM, all appointments for that calendar will also be deleted immediately. These appointments can be restored within 30 minutes from the deletion time. However, any appointments deleted before May 15th at 9:00 AM will not be restored. This process ensures only appointments deleted due to the calendar deletion are restored, not those deleted at other times.

How-to Steps

Using the Restore Calendar Feature

1. Navigate to Audit Logs:
   • Go to Settings > Audit Logs.
2. Identify the Deleted Calendar:
   • Locate the log entry corresponding to the deleted calendar.

1. Restore the Calendar:
   • Click on the three dots next to the log entry and select "Restore."

• Your calendar, along with all its previously deleted appointments, will be successfully restored.

Please Note: Audit logs are retained for a maximum of 60 days. Ensure timely restoration of deleted calendars to avoid any potential data loss.
