Restoring a deleted collection (automated backups were not set up)

[Nick Olivieri]

An entire collection was accidentally deleted when attempting to remove a single document.

Is there a way to recover this data?

Automated backups were not set up, so that is not an option.

Hi Nick,

Unfortunately no, we can't restore this data for you manually.  Can I ask how you deleted the data?  Was it a sub collection of the intended document?  Subcollections are not deleted when their parent document is deleted, so there's a chance your data is still hanging around but just "orphaned".
