# Archive project

Learn how to archive a project securely in your workspace. Step-by-step guide covers access, retention, and organization for streamlined project management.

To keep your item list tidy and quick to use, you can archive old items or items you don't use. Archiving old items will improve the performance of aqua. To archive an item, right-click on it and select 'Archive'.

The best way to archive many items at once is to create a filter. How to create a filter is described in detail in the [Views](/documentation/navigation-page/views.md) chapter. For example, your filter might look like this

By clicking on the 'Set back to active (un-archive)' button, you can un-archive all the items that are displayed in the view.

To show or hide archived items in the view, click 'Include archived items' in the view settings. To see which items are archived and which are not, we recommend adding an 'Is Archived' column to the view. All archived items will be marked with a folder icon in this column.

{% hint style="info" %}
Please note: \
Archiving is not applied in the Rich Client, i.e. archived items are still displayed in the Rich Client.&#x20;

Archiving permission is assigned in roles via the Configure Project permission (as this can also be used to archive entire projects).

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.aqua-cloud.io/documentation/projects-and-folders/projects/archive-project.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
