FreeForm board deleted and saved over

I use Freeform syned to iCloud. It accidently deleted all contents on the board and automatically saved to the cloud so I can't find a way to restore previously saved file. Is there anyway I can access the previously saved Freeform file that is synced to iCloud?

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 13.2

Hello LimeSoda7,


If Freeform boards were deleted, please check out the information on the following page, which outlines options, and how you may be able to recover those boards: Delete a Freeform board on Mac


What happens to my deleted boards?

* If you delete a board, it’s moved to the Recently Deleted folder. You can view and recover boards in the Recently Deleted folder for up to 30 days.

* If you delete a board you’ve been added to as a participant, the board is deleted from all your devices; however, if you still have the link you received when you were invited to open the board, you may be able to access it again.

* If you delete a board that you shared with others, the board is deleted from all your devices and all the participants’ devices. See Share a board.

Recover or permanently delete a recently deleted board
1. In the Freeform app  on your Mac, click Recently Deleted in the sidebar, then select a board.

If you don’t see the sidebar, choose View > Show Sidebar.

2. Do one of the following:

* Recover a recently deleted board: Control-click a board in the Recently Deleted folder, then choose Recover.
* Permanently delete a recently deleted board: Press Delete, then click Delete in the dialog.


Thank you.
