How do you restore a dropped share?

Explanation:
In Snowflake, a share is a metadata object that defines what data from a provider account is exposed to consumer accounts. If you drop that share, there isn’t a restore or recover command for it—there’s no time travel undo for a dropped share. To make the data available again, you must recreate the share from scratch and reconfigure which objects are included and which consumers are granted access. In practice, you’d run CREATE SHARE to create a new share, re-add the same databases/tables you want to share, and grant the appropriate access to the same consumer accounts. The other options describe commands that don’t exist for shares.
