Great! Hopefully this stays on track. There are times were a lot of pain is caused by not having this feature.

Hi Lilit, Just to confirm, so the planned functionality is to restore projects, tasks and issues which have been deleted. However, there is no plan to enable an undo for changes (e.g. re-ordering of tasks or changes to contents of fields)? Thanks, David

For SunTrust, our risk department takes issue with the fact that the audit history is lost with deletes. For example, all updates on a task and attached documents are lost during the delete. The project has a record of the delete and who/what, but it's very basic info. After it's developed, my hope is that deleted items will not be completely removed unless an admin removes them permanently. A persistent recycle bin would be ideal. This will allow us to turn on deletes for some of our power users, as opposed to locking down deletes to admins only!

That's a great observation. We target to restore update streams as well, so if you're deleting a project it will show up in the recently deleted items list and admins can restore it within 30 days. When restored all update stream entries will also be restored and you can see when it was deleted and restored in update streams as well.
