Use the Admin UI or the [`influxctl table undelete` command](/influxdb3/cloud-dedicated/reference/cli/influxctl/table/undelete/)to restore a previously deleted table in your InfluxDB Cloud Dedicated cluster.

When you undelete a table, it is restored with the same partition template and
other settings as when it was deleted.

> Tables can only be undeleted for
> approximately 7 days

>
>
> after they are deleted.
> After this grace period, all Parquet files associated with the deleted table
> are permanently removed and the table cannot be undeleted.

Access the InfluxDB Cloud Dedicated Admin UI at [console.influxdata.com](https://console.influxdata.com).
If you don’t have login credentials, [contact InfluxData support](https://support.influxdata.com).

In the table list for a database, find the deleted table you want to restore.
Deleted tables are shown with a “Deleted” status indicator.
You can sort on column headers or use the **Search** field to find a specific table.

1. In the options menu (three vertical dots to the right of the table), click **Restore Table**. The **Restore Table** dialog displays.
2. In the **Restore Table** dialog, review the table name and deletion date.
3. Click the **Restore Table** button to restore the table.

1. If you haven’t already, [download and install the `influxctl` CLI](/influxdb3/cloud-dedicated/reference/cli/influxctl/#download-and-install-influxctl).

2. Use the [`influxctl table undelete` command](/influxdb3/cloud-dedicated/reference/cli/influxctl/table/undelete/)to restore a deleted table. Provide the following:

   * The name of the database associated with the deleted table
   * The ID of the deleted table to restore

```bash
influxctl table undelete DATABASE_NAME TABLE_ID
```

Replace the following:

* `DATABASE_NAME`:
  Name of the database associated with the deleted table
* `TABLE_ID`:
  ID of the deleted table to restore

#### View deleted table IDs

To view the IDs of deleted tables, use the `influxctl table list` command with
the `--filter-status=deleted` flag–for example:

```bash
influxctl table list --filter-status=deleted DATABASE_NAME
```

Replace `DATABASE_NAME`with the name of the database associated with the table you want to undelete.
