How to Archive a Form

August 2, 2024

Form archiving offers a reliable way to store essential forms that aren’t needed immediately. This feature makes it easy to search for and retrieve these forms later, ensuring they are never truly deleted and remain accessible when needed.

Archive Forms

Archived forms are moved to the Archive section of the My Forms page. Follow these two easy steps to archive forms individually:

  1. In My Forms, hover your mouse over the form you want to archive and click on the More dropdown to its right.
  2. Under the Form column in the More menu, click on Archive.
Archive option under the Form column of the More dropdown menu in All Forms tab of the My Forms page

To archive multiple forms at once, select them or check the boxes to their left in My Forms, then click on Archive in the More dropdown menu at the top of the page.

View and Unarchive Archived Forms

Archived forms are automatically disabled by default and they are moved to the Archive section of the My Forms page. Unarchiving them will enable them and move them back to All Forms. Below are the steps to view and unarchive your archived forms:

  1. In My Forms, scroll down and click on the Archive tab on the left side of the page to view archived forms.
  2. In Archive, hover your mouse over the form you want to unarchive and click on the More dropdown to its right.
  3. Under the Form column in the More menu, click on Unarchive.

Similar to archiving forms, you can also unarchive multiple forms at the same time in Archive. To do that, select the forms or check the boxes to their left, then click on Unarchive in the More dropdown menu at the top of the page.

Note

Forms in Archive are grayed out regardless of whether they are enabled or disabled. You can enable archived forms and still keep them in that section of the My Forms page. See also: Enabling/Disabling a Form Through My Forms
