Deleted items are not in the Trash

[Kathleen_James]

I deleted a couple of records from my inventory base (on purpose). Then I accidentally deleted a whole field. When I go to my Trash it says nothing has been deleted for 7 days. That’s not true. There should be two or three records AND the entire multiple-choice field in there. What do I do?

Welcome to the Airtable community!

Is it possible that the records and fields are simply hidden?
Try creating a new view that shows all records and all fields.

You can also look to see if there is a recent snapshot that you can restore.

Could someone else have emptied the trash?

Hello. I know this was over a year ago, but did you ever find a solution to this problem? I'm having the exact same issue of items I know I deleted not being in the trash.
