I made a change in our dev instance under an update set accidentally deleted an application.   How can I take any changes from that update set and roll them back?

If I understand your question right, Sean Bolton, you are asking if you can undo the deletion of the application by rolling back the update set that you are working in.



If that is what you are asking, then I suggest you look at these two pages: Using Update Sets - ServiceNow Wiki and http://wiki.servicenow.com/index.php?title=Getting_Started_with_Update_Sets



An update set simply captures certain changes made to your instance (they don't capture data, however). So it isn't through the update set that you can revert your deletion of the application.

Hi Sean,


You can always back out the latest update set applied to your instance.


Regards,


That's only update sets that are committed.   I was working in a local update set on our dev site so there isn't a back out option that i can see because it wasn't applied.

Take a look at System Definition -> Deleted Records or System Applications -> Deleted Application Files - you will hopefully see the records that were deleted and restore them.
