Restores a Delta table to an earlier state. Restoring to an earlier version number or a timestamp is supported.

This page contains details for using the correct syntax with the RESTORE command. See Work with Delta Lake table history for more guidance on navigating Delta Lake table versions with this command.

Syntax

RESTORE [ TABLE ] table_name [ TO ] time_travel_version

time_travel_version
 { TIMESTAMP AS OF timestamp_expression |
   VERSION AS OF version }

Parameters

  • table_name

    Identifies the Delta table to be restored. The table name must not use a temporal specification.

  • timestamp_expression can be any one of:

    • '2018-10-18T22:15:12.013Z', that is, a string that can be cast to a timestamp
    • cast('2018-10-18 13:36:32 CEST' as timestamp)
    • '2018-10-18', that is, a date string
    • current_timestamp() - interval 12 hours
    • date_sub(current_date(), 1)
    • Any other expression that is or can be cast to a timestamp

  • version is a long value that can be obtained from the output of DESCRIBE HISTORY table_spec.

Neither timestamp_expression nor version can be subqueries.
