Restore deleted google workspace user

Recommended Posts

hi everyone

by mistake, i deleted one of the GOOGLE WORKSPACE users of my team. 

Is there any chance the exact same account can be restored? 

The goal should be to save/keep all existing emails and documents.

Hi there! You can restore a deleted Google Workspace user within 20 days of deletion if you haven’t replaced it with a new user. To do so, follow the steps in Google’s documentation:

If you added a user after deleting the one you want to restore, you'll need to take a few extra steps:

  1. In your site’s Home menu, click Settings > Domains & Email > Google Workspace > Add new user.
  2. Complete the form to create a new, temporary user, then click Purchase. You’ll remove this user later.
  3. Log into your account’s Admin Console at this link: https://admin.google.com/
  4. In the Users panel, remove the temporary user you just created: https://support.google.com/a/answer/33314?hl=en
  5. Next, open the Recently deleted users panel, and restore the user you're looking to recover: https://support.google.com/a/answer/1397578?hl=en

After removing the temporary user, note that you may need to wait up to 24 hours to restore the recently deleted user.

I hope this helps!
