Deleted item are removed from solr index and therefore cannot be queried. Solr should only have approved ones, also due to performance.

Is there a way still to get a list of deleted items?

You can retrieve single deleted item by using its persistentId and versionId in the endpoint : GET api/{category}/{persistentId}/versions/{versionId}. As per whole list, it is not possible.

Is there no way, to provide an endpoint available to the administrators/moderators, that would allow to read the deleted items from the database? (I understand they are just "soft deleted" and actually kept in the DB with status inactive or so.)

It is possible to retrieve deleted items in another endpoint. Will it be fine to retrieve only these ones that before delete action item status was APPROVED? If you want the most recent version before delete (such as INGESTED/SUGGESTED) then it will take much more time (I need to write recursive query and test it). @vronk

I created separate REST endpoint GET /api/deleted-items to retrieve all last items with deleted status (excluding STEPS). Changes merged to dev.

API endpoint exists and works as expected, thanks for creating it.
