Is there a method to restore deleted versions of a Confluence page?

Merve Nur Sevinç May 16, 2024

As you can see in the screenshot below, the previous pages until v.6 has been deleted. We want to restore those versions. Is there a potential way for this through database or any other means beyond the space trash feature in Confluence data center version?

I have tried to bring those pages back from space trash however there wasnt any document with the similar name or keywords.

I would expect it to be in the space trash, however, if it has been purged there is no way short of restoring it from a backup.

You would need to find a backup that predates the deletion of these versions, restore it to a temp server, find the missing versions, and export them.  However, you will not be able to insert them back into the version tree of your live confluence site.
