# Undo a change

`POST https://your-suite.grid82.app/your-app/v1/changesets/{changesetId}/revert`

Undo a bundle by replaying its operations backwards through the standard write permission compiler; undoing a delete recreates the row only if you have permission to create it.

> **Note: Generic contract**
>
> Your own version of this operation, with your tables and the fields you can read, is in
> your app's document: `https://{suite}.grid82.app/{app}/v1/openapi.json`, behind your credential.
> [Why each person gets their own](/docs/start/studio-and-runtime#why-an-app-has-an-api-of-its-own).

Restore only fields changed by an update, preserving colleagues' edits to other fields. If anyone changed a field being restored, refuse and identify who; send `confirm: true` to overwrite their changes. Only bundles of record creates, edits, and deletes are undoable; the changesets list marks each as `revertible`. Refuse other bundles (comments, saved views, pages, or app-shape changes) up front with the reason, without partially applying them. Undo all restorable rows in ONE transaction; list rows deleted since in `skipped` without failing the rest.

Requires the `records:write` scope. Operation `changesets.undo`. MCP tool `changesets_undo`. CLI: `grid82 changesets undo` (`npx grid82`).
