Archive projects, experiments, or tasks that you want to move out of the way, but don't want to lose access to
Projects can only be archived by members that have the role of 'Owner' at the Project level. Experiments and Tasks can only be archived by users that have the role of 'Owner' or 'User' on the Experiment level.
Archived work moves to the 'Archived state', which puts it in a view-only access (no longer open for editing). The 'Archived state' is a separate table from the 'Active state', and archiving is a reversible process in SciNote.
*Pro Tip – Archived worked cannot be added when creating new reports!
If you would like to learn more about the roles and permissions, please see the following article.
