@Hapatil

Deletion of records may or may not be stored based on auditing.

Use the Deleted Records module to restore a deleted record

you can check this in sys_audit_delete table; but providing access to external systems for this OOB table is not a good practice

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.

Hi !

Thanks,

Go to > All > System Definition > Deleted Records.

Here you will find all the records which are deleted with a filter on given duration.

You can target this table with REST api to get the deleted records for a given period of time.

I hope this help !
