Use Archive to remove work from active views, then restore it from Archived when needed. Files can be restored for 14 days after archiving.

Archive an item

Open the item’s menu and choose Archive. The action is available for Workspaces, Canvases, chats, files, and Skills when you have permission. Archiving a shared item affects the people who use it. Closing a tab or removing a live reference is a different action.

Restore an item

1

Open the Archive

Open Archive from your account menu, or select the Archive tab in Settings.
2

Find the item

Filter by type: Canvases, Files, Chats, Skills, or Workspaces.
3

Restore it

Choose Restore on the item. Return to its location to continue working.

Files and references

Archived files are purged after 14 days. Restore a file within that window if you need to keep it.
Archiving an original file can make its live references unavailable until it’s restored. Removing a reference alone leaves the original and its other references intact.

Objects that use Delete

Notes, text labels, shapes, lines, drawings, and widgets are Canvas objects. Delete removes those objects rather than adding them to the Archive. Use Cmd+Z or Ctrl+Z to undo while the Canvas history is available. Automations also have a Delete action. To stop recurring work while keeping its configuration, pause the Automation. See Sections before removing a section and its contents.
