Is it possible to restore an automatically deleted old repository

[RobinBobin]

I have several workspaces in my free account, with several repos in each. I haven't used my workspaces for several years. I tried to access one of the workspaces yesterday, logged in successfully, but saw a message, saying that my workspaces were deactivated due to inactivity. I reactivated the workspaces including the one I wanted to access. I successfully accessed it and found the repo I needed in the list of that workspace repos. Now I don't see this repo in the repo list of that workspace anymore, while seeing all the other repos in that same workspace.

Hello @RobinBobin 

Can you find it here ?

https://bitbucket.org/account/workspaces/deactivated

Nope. It seems to be active again.

Skip troubleshooting here in the Community. Repository recovery is highly time-sensitive, so you need to act quickly.

Try accessing the repository directly via its old URL (https://bitbucket.org/<workspace>/<repository>/), look under other projects.

Crucially, safeguard any local clones you have, as they might be your fastest way to recreate the repository.

Open a ticket with Atlassian Support immediately. Give them your workspace ID, the repository slug, and the timeline of its disappearance. Atlassian has a very narrow window for recovering Cloud data, so opening that ticket right away is essential.

Best,

https://bitbucket.org/<workspace>/<repository> is giving me "Repository not found".

I changed my notebooks several times since then, so no local copy.

I have already opened a ticket, so will hope for the best.

Thanks for your help!

No Problem!

Just for the record...
I found the repo in one of my other workspaces a couple of days ago, though I could swear I was looking in the right place 😅😳.
