# Restore access to replication data for Instance Data Replication

Restore Instance Data Replication \(IDR\) access to replicated data by sending a request to the producer replication set admin.

## Before you begin

Role required: admin

## About this task

When the producer replication set administrator generates a new encryption key, consumer sets with a status of Approved automatically receive the new key and data replication is uninterrupted. Consumer sets with a status of Denied or Pending Approval do not receive the new encryption key and replication stops.

## Procedure

1.  On the consumer instance, navigate to **Instance Data Replication** > **Consumer Replication Sets**.

2.  Select the consumer replication set to restore access to.

3.  Click the **Request Shared Key** related link.

    The system sends a request to the producer replication set administrator. If you are granted access, the consumer Approval Status changes to Approved.

4.  If the producer replication set has changed, click the **Synchronize Replication Entries** related link.

5.  To get the latest data in the producer replication set, on the **Inbound Entries** tab, select all the tables and click **Activate**.
