Are you using our SaaS platform (Baserow.io) or self-hosting Baserow?

SaaS

What are the exact steps to reproduce this issue?

  1. accidentally deleted a field (a number field, wired up to many other formulas, etc.)
  2. hit ⌘+Z, it did not restore
  3. went to trash, clicked restore - got error "The action couldn’t be completed because an unknown error has occurred. "
  4. Attempting to create a new field of the same name to import the correct data and allow the formulas to function properly again returns the same error.

Attach screenshots, videos, or logs that demonstrate the issue.

Hi @mdl.serv, welcome to the community!

This is interesting and sounds like a bug. Could you share a few more details on the table schema so I can best try to reproduce this to get to the bottom of it? Then I will make a report of it for the tema to resolve. Thanks!

hi @cwinhall - thanks for the reply. I ended up logging into baserow in a different browser (safari) and was able to successfully restore the deleted table. I’ll clear website data from my main browser (firefox) and see if I run into any more issues.

Glad to hear it because I could not reproduce the issue on my end! :upside_down_face:
