Hey there. I have an issue with restoring my data. I want to restore a document that to a state 6 days ago, so further down the line. When I hit restore, I’m trapped in the 
Resolving structure
loop and get following error in the network tab:

Do you have an idea perhaps? I have no possibilities to resore my data right now

Interesting. Could you try disabling React Dev Tools then trying again?

Same. Also non-developers have that issue

Ok, so not the access to document history that’s the issue. Have you defined a custom desk structure?

I did actually

Alright! We’re getting closer. When I’ve seen this in the past it’s because a 
documentId
is the same as the title of its parent 
listItem
in a list. For ex:

      S.listItem()
        .title('Home')
        .child(
          S.document()
            .schemaType('home')
            .documentId('home') // this is same as parent title
        ),
    ])
If that’s your issue here, you can change the title of the parent to anything other than the documentId’s title and you should be fine.

That’s a great clue. I think I’m doing this actually. I’ll have a shot at this 🙂

Hope it works out!

Just came across this one too and fixed by renaming the parent title. Thanks

🙂 Could be worth calling this out as a “gotcha” in the docs where singletons are documented
