Use rollback operation: If you used &#8220;BEGIN TRANSACTION&#8221; or &#8220;SAVEPOINT&#8221; before deleting the table, you can use &#8220;ROLLBACK&#8221; or &#8220;ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT&#8221; statements to rollback the transaction or rollback to the savepoint. This will undo the deletion of the table.<br \/>\n2. Use flashback table: If you enabled flashback table feature before deleting the table, you can use &#8220;FLASHBACK TABLE&#8221; statement to recover the table. For example, you can use the following statement to restore a table named &#8220;your_table_name&#8221; to its previous state.<\/p>\n<pre class=\"post-pre\">&nbsp;&nbsp;FLASHBACK&nbsp;TABLE&nbsp;your_table_name&nbsp;TO&nbsp;BEFORE&nbsp;DROP;<\/pre>\n<p>Please note that the flashback table feature in certain versions of the Oracle database may require specific configurations and permissions. If you have a database backup, you can recover a deleted table from the backup using a database management tool or command line tool. Before recovering the table from the backup, ensure that there are no other modifications to the database during the recovery process. If you do not have a backup available or access to the flashback table feature, and did not use transactions or savepoints before deleting the table, you may unfortunately be unable to recover the deleted table and its data. In this case, you may need to recreate the table and recover the data from another source or backup.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you accidentally delete a table in PL\/SQL, you can try the following methods to recover it: 1.
