Hi @vinj - I am not 100% sure whether any deleted items can be recovered from QuickSight or not.

Hi @ArunSanthosh @Koushik_Muthanna @eperts @Max @David_Wong - Any advise on this?

Hi @vinj ,

You can use the API to restore the deleted analysis.

Use ListAnalyses first to find the id of the deleted analysis.

Then use RestoreAnalysis to restore it.
