Recycle Bin's details panel

You can view information about an individual entry or item in the recycle bin by clicking on the actions available for that item.

In Venafi Configuration Console, when you click on an entry or item in the recycle bin, you see options in the bottom part of the Actions panel in a section with the title of the entry or item you have selected.

If you have selected an entry, you have the following options:

  • Restore. Restore all items in the entry to their previous locations.

    You cannot restore individual items in the entry. You must restore the entire entry.

  • Purge. Immediately purge the selected entry from the recycle bin. It will then be irrecoverable.

  • Retrieve details. If a entry has child items, click to retrieve the list of all child items. An expand icon will appear in the Container column. Click the icon to see all the individual child items.

    These child items only have the Properties action, as they cannot be individually purged or restored.

  • Properties. Display a modal window with detailed information about the entry or item.

    Properties provides a detail-rich description of the entry or item. You can see:

    • The entry's original location.

    • Restoration information, including how and where an item will be restored.

    • A detailed explanation of why a given item cannot be restored.

    • Information about who deleted the item and when.

    • The number of vault entries contained in the config entry, as well as a list of vault types, with a count of how many of each type are included.

    • Information about when the item will automatically be purged if no action is taken.

    If you click Retrieve Details before you click Properties, you can see even more information including (when applicable):

    • Number of associated vault (Secret Store) entries

    • The types and counts of items of those types in Secret Store.
