Sometimes boards and collections can become cluttered when your organizations contain a lot of information. By archiving cards, swimlanes, boards and collections, you can tidy up your organization whilst still being able to search for and view archived material.

Archiving cards hides them from the view, but you can still access them after they are archived by clicking the eye icon at the top of a board, now you can choose to show the archived cards on the board.
