4.5 Archive Folders, Forms And Data

From Zegeba v 4.4, folders, forms and data can be archived. Archived items can later be unarchived. Users with the roles Admin, Archive Manager and Form Managers can archive folders, forms and data. Data Managers can archive data (individual reports). When a folder or form is archived, the form templates and all data captured in them will be archived.

For most users, archived items will no longer be visible in the Dashboard or the Zegeba app, but users with these two roles can see them by pressing the button [Show Archived] in the Dashboard or selecting the filter “Show Archived data” in the Data Views screen. See detailed descriptions below.

Archive a folder

1. Select Archive Folder on the folder’s three-striped menu.

2. In the alert message that comes up, press [ARCHIVE] to confirm the archiving.
   The folder is now gone from the Dashboard.
   
   

Archive a form

1. Select Archive Form on the form’s three-striped menu.

2. In the alert message that comes up, press [ARCHIVE] to confirm the archiving.

Some times you may want to archive just the older versions of a form but keep the newer versions visible in the Dashboard and the app.
