### Overview

Restore dashboards using the specified IDs. If there are any failures, no dashboards will be restored (partial success is not allowed). This endpoint requires the `dashboards_write` permission.

OAuth apps require the `dashboards_write` authorization [scope](https://docs.datadoghq.com/api/latest/scopes.md#dashboards) to access this endpoint.
