Is it possible to restore a deleted space?

[Amanda Fredriksson]

Hi! Is there possible to restore a deleted space on Confluence, and if so, is the pages that was on that space accessible then?

Hello @Amanda Fredriksson

It depends on what stage of deletion your space happens to be :) 

If you simply delete the space from the Space settings menu, it will end up in the Trashed spaces 'purgatory' which you'll find in the Confluence settings > Data management > Trashed spaces.

From here, you can restore (or permanently delete) a space.

Once you delete it from here....

@Amanda Fredriksson Don't miss this note on the page that @Kristian Klima linked to:

Starting on January 6th, 2025, we will permanently delete spaces that have been in the trash for at least 60 days. We recommend that all Confluence admins go to Confluence administration > Data management > Trashed spaces before that date to make sure there aren’t any spaces in the trash that shouldn’t be.

Hello @Amanda Fredriksson and welcome to the Community!  Aside from restoring the full database, unfortunately this is not possible.
