# Recovering a deleted Production environment

You can recover a deleted Production environment at any time during the 30-day pending deletion period.

To recover an environment, you must have the Organization Admin role or a custom role with equivalent permissions.

## Steps

1. In the PingOne admin console sidebar, click the Ping Identity logo to open the **Environments** page and browse or search for the applicable environment.

   Environments that have been deleted but are still in the 30-day pending deletion period are indicated with a message that includes information about when the environment will be permanently deleted.
