Hi everyone,

I’m hoping someone here might have insight or ideas to help me recover from a mistake I made earlier today.

I accidentally ran prisma db push --force-reset on my MongoDB Atlas M0 (free tier) cluster, which completely wiped my data. I know the free tier doesn’t come with backups, but I’m wondering if there’s any way at all to recover my data — even partially.

Things I’m wondering:

  • Do M0 clusters ever have temporary snapshots or “hidden” backups taken by MongoDB internally?
  • Can I get access to any cache, system logs, or query logs that might show documents?
  • Is there any tool or method for data recovery from .next/, cached ISR pages (I’m using Next.js + Vercel), or BSON traces?
  • Would Vercel edge caching possibly still have stale content of pages or JSON responses I could extract?

I have a couple of recent .log files from MongoDB downloads and Vercel deployment logs if that helps. I know this might be a long shot, but I’d be grateful for any ideas. This is a very early-stage project that I just hadn’t backed up yet.

Thanks in advance for your time and help :pray:
