# Restore entity records

> <Info>This API is in beta. Endpoints, fields, and behavior may still change, so avoid depending on it in production.</Info>

Brings back every deleted record in the entity's trash that matches a filter, and returns how many it restored.

Send the filter as the body, written the same way as the `q` parameter of [List entity records](/api-reference/list-entity-records). For example, `{"id": {"$in": ["6886b8d390dc7e2f4a2c91b3", "6886b8d390dc7e2f4a2c91b4"]}}` restores those two records. An empty object, `{}`, restores everything in the trash.

Unlike [Restore entity record](/api-reference/restore-entity-record), this doesn't trigger the app's webhooks.

<Note>This endpoint accepts a personal API key belonging to a user with editor access to the app. A read-only key is refused, and workspace API keys are not accepted.</Note>

        Brings back every deleted record in the entity's trash that matches a
        filter, and returns how many it restored.


        Send the filter as the body, written the same way as the `q` parameter
        of [List entity records](/api-reference/list-entity-records). For
        example, `{"id": {"$in": ["6886b8d390dc7e2f4a2c91b3",
        "6886b8d390dc7e2f4a2c91b4"]}}` restores those two records. An empty
        object, `{}`, restores everything in the trash.


        Unlike [Restore entity record](/api-reference/restore-entity-record),
        this doesn't trigger the app's webhooks.
