I would like to enable snapshots or point in time recovery for azure Data Lake Store Gen2 but don't find any option for it. How do we restore data in case of accidental deletion by user and i would like to test it in my environment once.

    Hello @AnushaKurmindla-2464,

    Note: Restoring Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 flat and hierarchical namespaces is not supported.

    For more details, refer “Point-in-time restore”.

    If it is production data that got deleted, recommended to reach out to Azure Support immediately. They may be able to recover the data if not too much time has elapsed.

    Hope this helps. Do let us know if you any further queries.
