# restoreEntity

`PATCH /v1/entity/{slug}/{id}:restore`

Restores an entity by id

## Activity

If no `activity_id` query parameter is provided, implicitly creates Activity of type `EntityRestore`

## Path parameters

- `id` string, uuid, required
- `slug` string, required — URL-friendly identifier for the entity schema

## Query parameters

- `activity_id` union
  - string, ulid — See https://github.com/ulid/spec
  - '' | 'null', nullable

## Request body

- object — This endpoint doesn't require a payload, but an empty object can be sent to satisfy certain HTTP clients.

## Response `200`

The restored entity

- EntityItem
  - `_id` string, uuid, required
  - `_org` string, required — Organization Id the entity belongs to
  - `_owners` EntityOwner[]
    - `org_id` string, required
    - `user_id` string
  - `_schema` string, required — URL-friendly identifier for the entity schema
  - `_title` string, nullable, required — Title of entity
  - `_tags` string[], nullable
  - `_created_at` string, date-time, nullable, required
  - `_updated_at` string, date-time, nullable, required
  - `_deleted_at` string, date-time, nullable
  - `_acl` object — Access control list (ACL) for an entity. Defines sharing access to external orgs or users.
    - `view` string[]
    - `edit` string[]
    - `delete` string[]
  - `_purpose` string[], nullable
  - `_purpose_name` string[], nullable — Automatically computed purpose names from _purpose attribute
  - `_manifest` string[], nullable — Manifest ID used to create/update the entity
  - `_changesets` object, nullable — Pending attribute changesets for attributes configured with external or approval edit mode. The value shape is `Changeset` (`proposed_value`, `created_at`, `edit_mode`, ...) and is what `:apply` / `:dismiss` operate on. Read-only via normal entity PATCH/PUT operations — those handlers strip `_changesets` from request bodies. Use the changeset management endpoints to mutate this field.

## Other responses

- `400` — The entity is not deleted
- `404` — The entity was not found
- `429` — Too many requests
