Recover smart-sheet project plan from previously saved copies

edited 12/09/19 in Archived 2015 Posts

the owner of a project plan has mistakenly deleted a great deal of lines in the master plan.  my question is, can a smartsheet project plan be recovered from previous saved versions?

 

greatly appreciate any feedback that can help to recover a recent copy of the plan

    Renato,

     

    Are you doing backups? Perhaps an system admin is doing them for you?

    Or perhaps a recent export?

    If not, you are out of luck,

     

    If you  are on the Team or Enterprise plan, the backups can be automatic and recurring.

    See this article on backups:

    http://help.smartsheet.com/customer/en/portal/articles/506499-backing-up-your-data

     

    If the answer any of the questions is yes, then I can give tips on reconciling old and new versions.

    I had a similar situation recently (we didn't have backups enabled) and I now have a particularly sensitive spreadsheet emailed every weekday.

    Renato, backups are your best option for recovering data but its likely our Support team can email a checkpoint of the sheet to the sheet owner from before the rows were deleted.

     

    Email support@smartsheet.com with the name of the sheet, the email address of the owner, and the approximate time and date the rows were deleted.

    thank you all for your responses.  

     

    I followed Travis advice and the support team was in fact able to send me a checkpoint of the sheet.  this was perfect and we were able to recover all missing lines!

     

    great support, smartsheet team!  thank you again and greatly appreciated!
