Archiving cards on a project (classic)

In this article

You can archive classic project cards to declutter your workflow without losing the historical context of a project.

Notes:

  • Projects, the all-new projects experience, is now available. For more information about Projects, see "About Projects."
  • You can only create a new classic project board for an organization, repository, or user that already has at least one classic project board. If you're unable to create a classic project board, create a project instead.

Automation in your classic project does not apply to archived classic project cards. For example, if you close an issue in a classic project's archive, the archived card does not automatically move to the "Done" column. When you restore a card from the classic project archive, the card will return to the column where it was archived.
