What can you do with it?
- See what was deleted in a project, who did it and when: one entry per deletion, with everything it took.
- Restore stages, tasks, checklist items, comments, folders and attachments, or the whole project.
- Permanently delete something early, with an optional reason.
- Restore a deleted company.
When should you use it?
After a mistaken deletion, by you or by an agent, or when personal data must be removed immediately.
How does it work in ArduMaker?
Projects
- Deleted items stay for 30 days. Afterwards, a scheduled purge removes them for good and frees their files.
- A large deletion, of 25 objects or more, is announced a week before removal.
- Project admins see and restore; whoever deleted something can always restore it.
- Something whose container is still deleted cannot be restored: restore the parent first or, for a task, choose another stage.
- Restoring brings back only what that deletion took; anything deleted earlier stays deleted.
Companies
- Its admins can restore it for 30 days.
- A company removed for arrears is not restored here: it is reactivated by paying the debt.
- If it was removed for lack of verification, only an ArduMaker administrator can restore it, and verification is requested again.
What actually changes?
Deleting marks objects without removing them. Restoring shows them again and reschedules the calendar if needed. Purging, scheduled or manual, removes them and leaves a record that survives even purging a whole project.
Diagram
- Deletion: one entry with everything it took
- Trash: 30 days
- Restore?: everything comes back together
- Purge: permanent and logged
Expected result
Restored items come back with their tasks, items and comments. A whole deleted project is found in the deleted projects list, not in another project's trash.
Errors and troubleshooting
- The parent is still deleted: restore the containing entry first or, for a task, give a live stage.
- The entry was already restored: it cannot be purged or restored again.
- Company not found when restoring: it is not deleted, the period expired or the person cannot restore it. All three answer the same on purpose.
MCP access
An agent can list, view and restore a project's trash with the same permission as a person. Restoring is idempotent and safe to retry. See /mcp/proyectos.
