Is there a way to restore or overwrite a component via json import? We had a case where properties were deleted from a component and ended up having to restore the component instance content manually. The component instance content remained inside the Bricks page data for each component instance but without the original props the data was effectively orphaned inside the instance (in this case it was a details/summary FAQ component).
Importing an earlier version of the component from a site backup had no effect. Seeing as the data was still present inside the component instance I had hoped that importing an identical component from backup would offer the possibility of overwriting the existing component, but I didn’t see that.
In the end we had to duplicate the component on the backup site, reconnect the properties (which are disconnected after duplication for some reason), export the component and import to the main site, and then refill the property fields, essentially rebuilding each component instance from scratch.
Does there currently exist a better way to recover from this situation?
Thanks!
