Accidentally deleted a report and data model - can it be recovered?

Question

Summary

A user accidentally deleted a report and its data model, can this be restored? Once a catalog object is deleted, does it go to a deleted folder before it is purged? I am checking in other environments to see if there is a copy there.

Hi ,

Unfortunately this can't be undone..except the case where you have a backup for catalog or those files..

also, to find who deleted the files you have to have Audit Enabled, otherwise cannot be seen ,BIP doesn't have a "recycle bin" directory. Also, there is no recovery  option for deleted reports or data models.

If you have deleted the files at OS level, you can check Trash/Recycle Bin folders.
