Step-by-step workflows

Recover deleted work

Restore a note from Trash and publish it again.

Before you start

A managed note in Trash before its restore deadline.

Find the note

  1. Sign in.
  2. Open trash.
  3. Find the deleted note.
  4. Examine its restore deadline.

Deleted managed notes enter Trash for 30 days. Temporary notes do not have this recovery history. Permanent deletion cannot be undone in Jot.

Restore the draft

  1. Select restore for the note.
  2. Open the restored draft in notes.
  3. Examine the text, URL, and access controls.
  4. If necessary, correct the note.
  5. Select save.

A restore saves the note as a draft. It does not make the note public.

Publish again

  1. When the draft is ready, select publish this note.
  2. Set list on homepage as necessary.
  3. Select save.
  4. Open the saved URL.

For an earlier version of an existing note, use its revision history instead of Trash. Read Recover a note for revision behavior and URL conflicts.
