The Bin: bring back something you deleted
What goes to the Bin, how to restore it, and how long it stays.
When you delete an activity, an interaction or a folder, it goes to the Bin first, so you can bring it back. Open Bin in the menu on the left.
What goes there
- An activity you delete. If it was live, its link and every embed stop working while it is in the Bin. Its interactions stay in My activities.
- An interaction you move to the bin. It is taken out of the activities that ran it; the rest of those activities stays as it is.
- A folder you move to the bin, with its activities if you chose to send them too.
- Files from the Asset library and templates you remove also come here.
Taking an interaction page out of an activity, or deleting a content page, does not use the Bin. Use Undo straight away instead.
Restore something
- Open Bin. It is grouped into Activities, Interactions, Folders, Files and Templates. Search the Bin finds an item by name.
- Select Restore on its row.
It goes back where it was:
- An activity comes back running the same interactions, in the same order.
- An interaction goes back into the activities that ran it, in the same places.
- A folder comes back with the activities that went with it.
- If its folder has gone, it lands in General.
A message with Undo appears if you restored the wrong thing.
How long it stays
The line at the top of the Bin says how long your organisation keeps deleted work: 30 days unless your organisation has chosen otherwise. Due to be removed on each row gives its date, or Kept until deleted. After that date it goes for good.
To remove something sooner, select the bin icon on its row (Delete for good), or Empty bin for everything. Both ask first, and neither can be undone.
Delete
- It goes to the Bin.
- Restore puts it back where it was.
- It goes for good when its date comes.
Delete for good
- Only from the Bin: its row, or Empty bin.
- It is gone at once.
- It cannot be undone.
Everything you delete waits in the Bin first. Only Delete for good, or the end of your organisation's window, removes it.
The Bin shows what you deleted in the workspace you are in. Another workspace's deletions are in its own Bin. A workspace leader also sees what others deleted there.
