# Archive your project

> Learn how to archive a project in PandaSuite to manage inactive projects effectively: it leaves the active list without being deleted, and you can unarchive it from the dashboard at any time.

**Archiving is a great way to manage projects that no one needs to access anymore.**

Once a project is archived, it leaves the active project list and can no longer be edited until you restore it. People who have the sharing link can no longer open it, its [template link](https://docs.pandasuite.com/essentials/project-management/share-your-project-as-template/) stops working, and it is no longer visible from the [PandaSuite Viewer](https://docs.pandasuite.com/getting-started/install-pandasuite-viewer-on-ios-and-android-devices/) iOS & Android app. The apps that distribute it are unchanged: they keep serving the project to their users. An archived project is not deleted: you can restore it at any time.

## Archive a project

Go to your dashboard. Hover over the project you want to archive, click **···**, then **Archive**. Confirm in the window that opens.

You can also archive it from the project settings: click **···**, then **Settings…**, open the **Advanced** tab and, under **Risk zone**, click **Archive the project**.

## Unarchive a project

You can find your archived projects in the **Archived** tab of the project list.

Click **Unarchive** on a project to make it active again.
