Around half of all data losses can be attributed to human error and the limited options from Salesforce can make it a challenge to restore data in the event of a loss.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There can be significant effort in restoring data using the standard Salesforce weekly data export facility, because of the amount of steps, the manipulation that is required to bring the data together and the detailed understanding that is required in order to achieve the data restoration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Try it yourself\u2026<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are six key steps to take when recovering lost data in Salesforce. Follow these steps that were detailed in John\u2019s session to recover successfully:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Size up the damage &#8211;<\/strong> Determine all of the records that were affected by the data loss,&nbsp; you need to understand the schema. There are a variety of tools available to understand your schema and <a href=\"https:\/\/workbench.developerforce.com\/describe.php\"><strong>Salesforce Workbench<\/strong><\/a> is a great starting point.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Isolate missing data &#8211; <\/strong>The next step will require two sets of your data, one <strong>before<\/strong> the data loss and another from<strong> after<\/strong> the data loss.<\/li><li><strong>Create restore files &#8211; <\/strong>Once the records to restore have been identified in Step 2, you should<strong> create a separate file for each object<\/strong> that needs to be recovered.<\/li><li><strong>Create Custom External ID &#8211; <\/strong>Create an External ID Field by using Salesforce \u201cSetup\u201d.<\/li><li><strong>Prepare the Deleted Records &#8211; <\/strong>Edit the restore files so they include the new \u201cExternal ID\u201d as a column heading.<\/li><li><strong>Restore Files &amp; Upload with Data Loader &#8211; <\/strong>The parent object records need to be established first in order to generate new ID values. Then, the children object records should be added to rebuild the correct relationships to each parent record.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are of course plenty of easier options available on the <a href=\"https:\/\/appexchange.salesforce.com\/\"><strong>AppExchange<\/strong><\/a> if you\u2019d rather not complete this manual process &#8211; Search for \u2018Data Loss\u2019 for some alternative methods or speak directly to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ownbackup.com\/\">OwnBackup<\/a> to discover how they could help you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>What was your favourite part of John\u2019s session?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>See you in May!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That\u2019s a wrap for our February essential takeaways and we really hope they\u2019ve provided you with some useful information to improve your productivity, access and data processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We can\u2019t wait to host you again at our next group in May, <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/39EQQVg\">registration is open<\/a> and you can sign up to attend on the Trailblazer Platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Don\u2019t forget to join our <a href=\"https:\/\/trailblazercommunitygroups.com\/salesforce-admin-group-cheltenham-united-kingdom\/\">Chatter Group<\/a> to keep up to date with the latest information on our upcoming events too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We were absolutely delighted to host the Cotswolds Salesforce Community Group in February and it was great to see so many members of the Salesforce Ohana join in our trivia quiz and knowledgeable sessions.
