Archive cards on project boards
Archive any issue, pull request, or note from your project board without losing its history.
Cleaning up your project boards just got a lot simpler. You can now hide a card from your project board without deleting it. Archive any issue, pull request, or note to maintain a cleaner project board without losing the removed card’s history.
To archive a card, click on the ... icon and select Archive. This action will send the archived card to a separate archived view, which is accessible from your project board’s menu. To access all archived cards, open the project board’s menu, click ... and select View archive. Restoring a card from the archived view will automatically move it into the last known column it belonged to prior to being archived. The search functionality in project boards does not include archived cards.
