When a project is finished or on hold, you can archive it instead of deleting it. Hive keeps all of the project's work, and you can unarchive the project at any time.
Only project owners and workspace admins can archive or unarchive a project.
Archive a project
Open the project, click More in the top-right corner, then click Archive project.
You can also archive a project from the sidebar. Hover over the project, click the ⋮ menu, then click Archive project.
Or open Project navigator, hover over the project row, then click the Archive icon on the right.
Projects with child projects
If the project has child projects, Hive asks what to archive:
Archive this project only
Archive this project and all child projects: this archives the child projects on every level below the project.
Select an option, then click Archive.
Projects with external users
If some external users are members of this project only, Hive shows an External user access warning with their names. When you click Archive, Hive removes these external users from the workspace.
What happens to an archived project
The project moves to the Archived tab in Project navigator and is removed from the sidebar.
The project shows the banner This project has been archived, and its actions are read-only.
Archived projects still count toward your plan's project limit.
Organizing archived projects
To keep archived projects together, put them under an archived parent project:
In Project navigator, open the Archived tab and click Create archived project.
Enter a name, then click Create archived project.
On the Archived tab, hover over an archived project and click the pencil (Edit) icon.
In Location, select the new archived project, then click Save changes.
Unarchive a project
Open Project navigator and click the Archived tab. Hover over the project, then click the Unarchive icon. To find a project fast, type its name in the search box.
You can also open the archived project, click More, then click Unarchive project.
If the project has child projects, Hive asks if you want to unarchive this project only or this project and all child projects.
