If you do not have G Suite backup, your recovery options are time-bound.
- You can restore Contacts only up to 30 days prior.
- Ask the user to sign in to their G Suite account.
- Go to the G Suite Contacts app and select Undo changes in the top right corner
- Select the date and time that the user needs to roll back to. That is, the date before the contacts were deleted.
