I accidentally closed my Trello board and can no longer access or recover it

NOLA MKT
August 24, 2026

I am the creator and administrator of a Trello board called “MARKETING NOLA.”

I accidentally selected the “Close board” option from the Trello iPhone app because I wanted to remove the board from my view, as I am no longer working on that project.

After doing this, the app showed an error saying that the operation could not be completed. However, I later received an email notification confirming that the board had been closed. The other member of the board also received a notification that they had been removed from it.

The problem is that the board does not appear in my Closed Boards section, and when I try to open the board using the link from the email, I receive the following message:

“This board could not be loaded. Check that you have permission to view it and try again.”

I am using the same Trello account that I used to create and manage the board.

I did not permanently delete the board. I only selected the “Close board” option in the iPhone app.

Could someone please help me recover or reopen the board and regain access to it? The board contains important work and content that I need to recover.

Thank you very much for your help.
