How to restore DatabricksRoot(FileStore) data after Databricks Workspace is decommissioned?

My Azure Databricks workspace was decommissioned. I forgot to copy files stored in the DatabricksRoot storage (dbfs:/FileStore/...).

Can the workspace be recommissioned/restored? Is there any way to get my data back?

Also, is there any difference between Deletion and Decommissioning? Because in the databricks workspace REST API documentation, there is no "decommission" command. There is just the "delete" command.

Hello @Anmol Deep​ 

Please submit a support request ASAP, so we can restore the deleted workspace. You can recover artifacts from the workspace.

Hello @Arvind Ravish​ I have submitted a support request to Microsoft support team. (We use Azure). Hopefully they help us recover the data. I will update what happens.
