Trash and restore
Trash and restore
Deleted items go to Dashboard → Trash rather than disappearing. Blueprints, portfolios and Vellum saves all land there.
The thirty-day window
Trash lists everything deleted in the last 30 days that you can restore: your own rows, plus team and organisation rows where you hold the role that would let you restore them.
Items older than thirty days are listed separately, below, as a heads-up.
Treat thirty days as the guarantee and nothing beyond it. Older rows are still recoverable today only because nothing purges them on a schedule yet.
Restoring
Restoring puts an item back where it was. If its portfolio has since been deleted, it returns to Main.
What a delete takes with it
| Deleting | Also removes |
|---|---|
| A blueprint | Its strata, files and version history |
| A portfolio | Nothing. Its contents move up rather than being destroyed |
| A folium page | The redirects pointing at it |
A folder delete must never be a content delete, which is why a portfolio is the exception.
Deleting a page removes the redirects that pointed at it. Anything still
linking to the old URL starts returning 404 rather than following a redirect
to nothing. The redirect-dangling rule in
diagnostics catches
this.
Permanent removal
Permanently delete on a row, or emptying trash, is exactly that. It is not covered by version history and there is no second bucket behind it.
