Kevin Ocie Looking to get back removed records from salesforce using API's
I have loaded my Salesforce object data into Azure SQL. Now I want that one or multiple record in Salesforce get deleted then I can retrieve those records using REST API.
By default SF soft deletes the records, they can still be seen in UI in Recycle Bin and undeleted from there. (There's also a hard delete call to skip the Recycle Bin).
Records stay in there for 15 days max. And bin's capacity depends on your org's data storage, see https://help.salesforce.com/articleView?id=home_delete.htm&type=5. So if you mass deleted a lot of data there's a chance the bin will overflow.
To retrieve these you need to call /queryAll instead of /query service. And filter by isDeleted column which doesn't show up in Setup but is on pretty much every object. See https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api_rest.meta/api_rest/dome_queryall.htm
/services/data/v49.0/queryAll/?q=SELECT+Name+from+Account+WHERE+isDeleted+=+TRUE
Let me know if it helps you and close your query by marking it as solved so that it can help others in the future.
Thanks.
