Please add a possibility to merge a deleted artifact from a baseline into the current configuration

Please add a possibility to deliver deleted artifacts in an configuration management enabled project from a baseline or a different stream where the artifact is still available to the target stream.

Currently, we can use the compare tool to find the original artifact and can inspect the old content by comparing the current configuration against the baseline, but we didn't find a way to restore the artifact from the old baselines (including id, content, attributes, links, comments, ....)
(support case id: TS001048202)

    In addition, ideally there would also be REST API support for merging the artifact from the baseline into the stream.

    As part of this enhancement a REST API should also be provided to allow the restoring of a deleted artifact in a stream from a baseline.

    As part of the review process, we strive to be transparent about our intentions with each enhancement suggestion. The IBM Engineering team has carefully reviewed this idea, and based on our understanding, it does not fit our near-term plans. Although we are closing this request, it will be kept in IBM's ideas repository. We value your feedback and thank you for allowing us to partner with you in developing our products.
