    Dear Thil nada,

    Greetings!

    Thanks for reaching out to this community.

    Based on your description, I understand your query about how to retrieve or restore the channel.

    Upon my investigation and tests, would you please kindly try below steps to restore an accidently deleted channel?

    1. Navigate to and hover on the teams which the deleted channel belonged to, click More options (three dots) > Manage team. Image
    2. In the Channels tab, expand the drop-down menu like in below screenshot and select Deleted. Image
    3. Click Restore button. Image

    Note: Channels can be restored within 21 days of deletion, but no new channels can be created with the same name as the deleted channel within that 21-day window. Please kindly refer to Delete a channel in Microsoft Teams - Microsoft Support.

    Thank you in advance for your understanding! Your patience and cooperation will be greatly appreciated. I hope all the best!
