Archive
Archive projects to declutter a workspace and improve search results.
The Archive provides a way to keep past content in a workspace, without having it appear on the home page.
When archived:
-
Projects will not show up on the home page, and instead will appear on the Archive page (above)
-
Projects can be easily excluded from workspace search via the Include archived toggle
-
Any scheduled runs on an archived project will be disabled
-
The project will show a banner indicating it is archived
-
The project cannot be edited further unless restored from the archive.
Auto-archive
- Auto-archiving is available on the Team and Enterprise plans.
- Users will need the Admin role to set up auto-archive rules.
Admins can set up rules to automatically archive projects, based on when a project was last edited, or last viewed.
To configure these settings, head to Settings, then Organization.
Projects in a Collection, and components are never auto-archived.
When a project is archived due to an auto-archive rule, users with Full access permissions will be notified via a daily summary email.
Manual archive
- Manual archiving and unarchiving is available on all plans.
- Users will need the Admin or Editor role and Full access project permissions to manually archive a project or component.
Projects can be manually archived via the dropdown menu next to the project title, or the three-dot menu on the home page.
Unarchiving
Projects and components can be restored from the archive from either:
- The three-dot menu on the Archive page
- Visiting the project or component directly, via the Unarchive button in the banner.
FAQs
What counts as a project view?
A project is marked as viewed when a user visits the published app. This means that visits to the Notebook of a project are not counted as views.
What happens if both rules are configured?
If both rules are configured, and a project is published, both criteria must be met for a project to be archived.
If both rules are configured, and the project is not published, only the last edited criteria must be met for a project to be published — this is because (as above) project views are based on views of the published app.
Do auto-archive rules apply to components?
Components can only be manually archived, and will not be affected by auto-archive rules.
Can projects use an archived component?
When a component is archived, it will no longer appear in the list of available components when importing a component to a project.
However, any existing projects that use the archived component will continue to work as expected.
