Recycle Bin

As a Global Admin, you can access the recycle bin from the Administrator App.

You can restore and delete items from the recycle bin. In addition, after moving an item to the recycle bin, you can then create an item with the same name. For example, after deleting an app with the name ‘Finance,’ you can create a new app with the name ‘Finance.’ The recycle bin can include two items with same name; the item tile details will differentiate them.

You can move Apps, Libraries, Solutions, and Documents to the recycle bin. The table below includes tile details associated with each item type.

Restore items from the recycle bin

When you restore an item, the system confirms an item by that name does not already exist in the app you are restoring it to.

Example You delete a library named ‘lib1’ from the Finance App. When you restore it, the system confirms that the Finance app does not already include a library named ‘lib1’. If it does contain such a library, the system sends an error noting that an item with same name already exists. To restore ‘lib1’, you must first remove the existing library named ‘lib1’ from the Finance App.

To restore an item from the recycle bin, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the Administrator App in the Evolve setup.
  2. Open the Recycle Bin page.
  3. Expand the Apps, Libraries, Solutions, and/or Documents you want to restore.
  4. On the item tile, click the icon and select Restore.
  5. The item will be restored, and you will be notified that the item has been successfully restored.

Delete items from the recycle bin

You can delete items from the recycle bin either with Delete Resource Job or manually.

The Delete Resource Job runs daily, deleting items which are 30 days old or older. You can configure the time at which this job runs and if necessary, you can disable this job.

To manually delete items from the recycle bin, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the Administrator App in the Evolve setup.
  2. Open the Recycle Bin page.
  3. Expand the Apps, Libraries, Solutions, and/or Documents you want to delete.
  4. On the item tile, click the icon and select Delete.
  5. The item will be deleted, and you will be notified that the item has been successfully deleted.
