I accidentally deleted one of our most frequently used project template. Is there anyway to get it back, or do I need to try and rebuild it from the ground up? ---

Welcome, @Robyn_Best, and sorry to hear this! I think you should email [support@asana.com](mailto:support@asana.com) and perhaps they’d be able to restore it for you. When you delete a project, you’re sent a link in email (some minutes later) to recover it yourself, but I don’t know if that applies to project templates, so best to check in with Support. If worst comes to worst, you can duplicate a project that you previously created from that template, save it as a template, and update as appropriate so you’re not starting from scratch. Best wishes, Larry ---

Thank you @Larry_Berger_lpb! I had my Asana emails set up to go to a seperate email inbox, so I hadn’t seen the deleted project email. I can confirm that you do still recieve that notification when a template–rather than a project–is deleted! 🙂 ---

Glad that worked for you, @Robyn_Best, and thanks very much for posting back so we can rest easy about this in the future! Larry ---

Is there a way to restore a previous version of a project template? I accidentally deleted a task with a dozen subtasks that I want to recover. ---

Hello @Evan_Barrientos1, Usually you should receive an email for project deletions as Larry also mentioned above. Otherwise you can reach out to [support@asana.com](mailto:support@asana.com) and they will be able to assist. ---
