How to Restore a Deleted Role

Restoring a deleted role reinstates it along with its previous configuration. This is useful when a role was deleted by mistake or when you need to recover access configurations that were managed under that role.

This guide explains how to restore a previously deleted role using the Vultr API.

1. Send a PATCH request to the Restore Role endpoint to restore the deleted role. Replace {role-id} with the id of the deleted role.

   CONSOLE

   Copy

   $ curl "https://api.vultr.com/v2/roles/{role-id}/restore" \
       -X PATCH \
       -H "Authorization: Bearer ${VULTR_API_KEY}"
