How to unhide user removed aggregations

Question

I came across an issue where, just to try it out, I removed an aggregation from a timeline app. I then was unable to get the aggregation back.

Steps to take:

1. add an app to your timeline (For example http://pose.com)
2. create some actions
3. once an aggregation shows up in the timeline app, remove it by clicking the edit icon in the title bar of the aggregation. Note: do not hide the 'recent activity' but hide any other aggregation

From a user's perspective: how can a user unhide this aggregation?

• I have looked in the app-settings ('Account Settings' > 'Apps') but there are no options for aggregations.
• removing the app, and then adding it again also does not work. Recent activities show fine, but any other aggregations have disappeared

From an app's perspective: how can an app unhide this aggregation?

• can I see (API call) which aggregations have been hidden by the user?
• can I then ask the users to un-hide the aggregation?
• is there an API call do un-hide an aggregation?

Answer 1

From a user's perspective:

1. From your profile page, click on the "Activity Log" link;
2. Find the application whose activity box you want restored from the column on the left and click on it;
3. A little icon will appear on the top right - click on it to decide what kind of app activity gets shown and to restore any type of activity you previously hid.

From an app's perspective:

As for now, no API calls have been created to deal with aggregations.

Hope this helps!
