Hi @umarknightr,

 

Type "Deleted records" in the filter navigator:

Then search by name, type or date (if you know something was deleted today for example)

@umarknightr ,

 

Navigation: Go to System Definition > Deleted Records.

This table logs records deleted from audited tables.

 

Note - Please keep this in mind :

Not all record deletions are tracked. On a table with attribute 'no_audit_delete=true', deletions will not be tracked. Also Deletions from tables with a 'sys' prefix i.e. 'sys_user' are not audited by default. If you want to track deletions from these tables, just add the table name to the 'glide.ui.audit_deleted_tables' system property. 

 

 

If this works, please mark it as helpful/accepted — it keeps me motivated and helps others find solutions.

Hi @umarknightr ,

 

To find deleted records in ServiceNow, use the Deleted Records module (System Definition > Deleted Records) to view records from audited tables, or the Delete Recovery module for more recent deletions within a seven-day window. You can also check the sys_audit_delete_list.do page to find all deleted application files.
