Learn how to archive forms to tidy your workspace without permanently deleting them in Dashpivot

Written by Adriana De Souza

Archiving a form on Dashpivot helps keep your workspace organised by removing completed or outdated forms from the main view without deleting the data permanently. Archived forms are stored in the Archived tab where they remain accessible and can be restored later if needed.

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Go to the relevant folder or subfolder that contains the form you want to archive.

  2. Navigate to the template where the form is saved.

  3. Locate the specific form you wish to archive.

  4. Choose one of these methods to archive the form:

    • Register View: Toggle to Register View, select the form, and click Archive.

    • Mobile: Tap the three dots (⋮) next to the form and select Archive.

To bulk archive multiple forms:
