Restoring Navigation Settings

In the event of accidental deletion, corruption, or unwanted changes to your SharePoint navigation, you can restore a previous configuration in seconds.

The Restore Process

Unlike backups (which are read-only), a restore operation issues writing payload commands to your SharePoint site navigation collection.

Steps to Restore

  1. Go to the Backups tab in the portal.
  2. Select the SharePoint Site you want to restore from the dropdown.
  3. Browse the version history catalog and locate the timestamp/version you wish to revert to.
  4. Click Restore next to that version.
  5. A verification modal will show. Confirm the action.
  6. The system will queue the task, reconstruct the node hierarchy, and push the settings live using the SharePoint Navigation API.

[!WARNING]
Restoring a version will overwrite the current live navigation configuration of that specific SharePoint site. It is recommended to download a backup JSON file manually before proceeding.
