Restoring an archived administrative object


Restoring an archived administrative object returns it to its state when it was archived. Before you restore an archived administrative object, review the following impacts.

Impacts for restoring archived administrative objects

Term

Impacts

Restoring the term automatically restores it to the associated dictionary.

Dictionary

Impacts

Restoring the dictionary automatically restores it to the associated site search.

GraphQL Content Delivery API

Impacts

Restoring a CDA automatically exposes it to previously configured upstream applications and clients.

GraphQL Content Management API

Impacts

Restoring a CMA automatically exposes it to previously configured upstream applications and clients.

GraphQL API client

Impacts

Restoring a GraphQL API client automatically exposes it to previously configured upstream applications.

Audience

Impacts

Restoring an audience automatically resumes the accumulation of analytics associated with that audience. Furthermore, the asset's audience-specific version is restored as well, and visitors including the characteristics in their requests view the audience-specific version.

Variations previously created for an archived audience are now visible in the asset's content edit form.

Content template

Impacts

Restoring a content template resumes pre-population of new assets associated with the underlying content type. For example, if a content template New Features associated with articles was archived, restoring that template resumes pre-population of new articles.

Editorial content type

Impacts

Assets that were created with the archived editorial content type can now be modified.

Content type modifications

Impacts

Restoring a content type modification restores the additional fields to the assets based on the modification as well as any associated text. For example, you modified the author content type with a field Number of Publications, and the author Adam Braun has that field set to 10. When you archive the modification and then restore it, Adam Braun again has a field Number of Publications set to 10.

Dashboard

Impacts

Restoring a dashboard allows administrators to assign it to users, roles, and sites.

Site

Impacts

Assets owned by an archived site resume ownership by the restored site.

Site Category

Impacts

Editors can resume filtering for sites by site category.

Theme

Impacts

Administrators can resume modifying the theme, and can apply the theme to sites.

Brightspot resumes rendering assets associated with sites using the restored theme.

User

Impacts

Archived users can resume logging in to Brightspot, and other users can resume impersonating that user. The label Archived no longer appears in various widgets, such as Recent Activity.

Restored users retain their configuration as of the time they were archived, including profile settings, role, and permissions.

Role

Impacts

Notifications associated with the role resume operation.

Workflow

Impacts

Assets return to the status they were in when the workflow was archived.
