Is it possible to archive data?

I’m building a facility operations management app and I’m just wondering if there is any way to let’s say archive a task that has been done/completed?

I am using glide tables and I found a way for admin to clear a row (a task) with a delete button, so I was wondering if there is a workaround to lets say “archive” that row (task).

Also on the topic of deleting, if an admin deletes a row, is there any way to recover it, or is it gone for good?

Thank you for your help!

Add a boolean column to the table, set that to true to archive a row, and then use it as a filter on the front end.

It’s gone for good.

Thanks for your reply!

How would I go about doing that on the front end once I set the Boolean column in my table?

Thanks!

It depends how you are displaying the data.
For the sake of example, let’s say you are displaying the data as a collection. Then you would apply a filter to the collection such that rows are only included where the boolean column is not checked.
