Manage growing data volumes and improve system performance by autoarchiving old or inactive data. Keep only important and reliable information in production.
- Manage Staged Data Before Archiving
View or clear records in the staging area before you create an archive policy. Generate a summary report to see what records you imported, grouped by object type. Clear the staging area to delete unarchived records and start over. - Test Archive Callouts in Apex with Mock HTTP Responses
Mock archive callouts in your Apex test classes to test Archive Apex functionality without making actual HTTP requests to the archive service. Previously, customers couldn't mock archive callouts, which prevented complete unit testing of Apex code that uses Archive Apex. - Integrate AI Agents with Archive Data Through the Archive Connect API
The Archive Connect API connects AI agents to archived data for search, unarchive, analysis, and management operations. AI agents handle compliance tasks such as Right To Be Forgotten (RTBF) erasure requests and Personally Identifiable Information (PII) anonymization, storage analysis, and job log retrieval—all without manual intervention. The API provides 13 tools accessed through the Headless 360 Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. - Complete Unarchive Operations When Owners Are Inactive
Complete unarchive operations even when the original record owner is inactive. Archive automatically assigns the record to the Integration User and retries the operation, eliminating manual reassignment steps. - Choose How Archive Policies Handle Unsupported Objects
Control whether archive policies fail or continue when they encounter unsupported child objects. An Archive Settings toggle gives you the choice between policy failures that protect data integrity (default) or automatic skipping that prevents failures but can cause data loss. Archive excludes non-creatable objects from policies because archived data can't be unarchived if the object doesn't support record creation. - Unarchive Up to 1,000 Records at Once from Archive Search
Unarchive up to 1,000 records at once directly from Archive Search results instead of unarchiving records one at a time. - Query Archived Data from Deleted Objects in Archive Apex
Archive Apex Data Query now supports querying archived data from objects deleted from your production schema. Previously, deleting an object from production made its archived data inaccessible. - Find Archived Records Faster with a Search Icon and Expanded Date Range
Archive Search has a Search icon to initiate searches, and the default date range is one year. Date Archived is the default date field for all indexed objects. For objects without Date Archived indexing, Archive Search falls back to Last Modified Date automatically. These updates reduce the steps your users take to find archived records. - Maintain Reliable Archive Performance with Request Rate Limits
Archive enforces request rate limits for Data Query and Unarchive operations to maintain system stability and performance. If you exceed a limit, the system returns status code 429 and requires you to wait before retrying. - Monitor Archive Progress with New Activity Statuses
Manage archive jobs more precisely with three new activity statuses. The Discarded status indicates an abandoned import and that records moved to the Recycle Bin. The Interrupted and Max Interruptions statuses track recovery when the system automatically resumes jobs from saved checkpoints. . - Manage Data More Efficiently with New Archive App Settings
Manage your data lifecycle with more control using new configuration options in the Archive app. You can now import Heroku data directly, unarchive content in private libraries, and enable automatic retries for email address validation errors. - Access Archive 2.0 Data in Salesforce Classic
View archived records in related lists directly from Salesforce Classic page layouts. - Rename Archive App Features to Align with Salesforce Standards
Archive app features have new names to align with Salesforce core products. The widget is now the Archive component, and the Archive SDK is now Archive Apex. These updates create a consistent experience for admins and developers working across the platform. - Prepare for Retirement of Own Archive Managed Package and Legacy Archive
Salesforce retires the Own Archive managed package and Legacy Archive products to prioritize a native archiving solution. The transition addresses scalability and error visibility limitations and improves performance. To maintain archiving capabilities, migrate to Archive 2.0 before the current subscription ends.
