Recover deleted contacts' history events

Hi all,

Just wondering if it is possible to manually extract deleted contact’s history events from previous database backup? A particular contact is accidentally deleted in existing system so it needs to be re-imported however, I am not sure whether previous history events can be recovered.

Hello @duplexcleaning,

The easiest way is to recreate the contact without trying to retrieve its history.
This would require injecting data directly into the SQL DB, which can have side effects that can create bugs. I strongly advise against this!
