Archiving and Unarchiving Engagements

In Strobes, engagements represent your ongoing or completed pentesting and security assessment projects. As your list of engagements grows, it’s important to keep things organized.

Archiving helps you hide completed or unused engagements from your active workspace—without deleting any of the associated data. You can unarchive them anytime when needed.

This guide walks you through how to archive and unarchive engagements using the Strobes platform.

Archiving Enagagements

After creating an engagement, if you no longer need it, you can use the archive option.

• Navigate to ‘Engagements’.
• Click on ‘Actions’ for the engagement that you do not require.
  
  
• Click on ‘Archive’.
• The engagement will now be moved to the ‘Archived’ tab.
  
  

Unarchiving Engagements

If you need to restore any of the archived engagements, you can use the unarchive option.

• Navigate to ‘Engagements’.
• Click on the ‘Archived’ tab. It will show all the engagements which have been archived.
• Click on ‘Actions’ for the engagement that you do not restore.
  
  
  
   
• Click on ‘Unarchive’.
• The engagement will now be moved to the ‘Active’ tab.
  
  

NOTE: The archived engagements will be stored on strobes according to the data retention policy which you have set up. More about data retention here.
