### Actions

Admins can take proactive actions directly from the Archived tab. They can choose to:

* **Un-archive** specific items, making them active again for users
* **Permanently delete** items that are no longer needed.&#x20;

These actions can be performed individually or in bulk, enhancing efficiency for large-scale content management tasks.&#x20;

### Sorting and Searching

Sorting and search functionalities further empower admins to organize and locate archived items based on specific criteria, such as item type, archive date, or deletion status. This flexibility ensures that admins can quickly find and manage the content they need, streamlining governance and maintenance processes within the network. Overall, the Archived tab serves as a comprehensive tool for administering and maintaining archived content, supporting efficient content lifecycle management across the network.
