What happens when I archive an asset?
When an asset is archived in SafetyCulture, it becomes inactive across multiple features and workflows to prevent unintended use and keep records clean. Here’s what to expect:
You can't edit its details or use it in inspections or actions.
Related notifications are paused.
Active integrations with asset management systems like Samsara or Geotab will stop.
You'll need to manually delete any scheduled inspections.
It will remain in maintenance programs, but notifications will stop.
You won't be able to track your asset in real-time, including past events.
If you've accidentally archivedassets, you can always restore them via the web app.
