Hi @codyjacot  👋🏻

First of all, welcome to community! ✨

If you are on the free Trello plan, it seems there is a limit of 10 open boards per workspace. If your workspace exceeded this, Trello may have automatically closed older boards to stay within the limit.

You can try the following options:

  • Option1: Go to your Trello Boards dashboard. Open the relevant workspace, look for View Closed Boards, and click Reopen next to the board you want back.
  • Option2: Make sure you are logged into the exact same email address you used when the board was active.
  • Option3: If the "Reopen" button is grayed out or you get an "Only the Administrator can open the board" error, contact the Atlassian Support Team so they can manually restore your access.

If the above steps fails, the last option is to contact Atlassian Support.

And you can also find the official documentation for details - Reopen a closed board

 

I hope this helps & resolves your issue. 🙂

Thanks,
Anwesha
