# How to Archive/Unarchive a User/Users on Ironsight

## Archiving a user removes them from active visibility in your company’s profile without permanently deleting their historical data. This is especially useful when an employee leaves your organization and you want to clean up your user list.

#### When Should I Archive a User?

You should archive a user when:

- They are no longer with your organization.
- You want to retain their historical activity and job data for records.
- You want to remove them from all current user lists and assignments.

   Log into Ironsight with you correct credentials, and navigate to the Admin Portal.

2. Select the appropriate Hub where the user belongs.                                                                                          🔹 *If your organization does not use hubs, simply skip this step and continue to the next step.*
