# Set unnecessary tasks as archived
This setting works as a “soft delete” option for tasks. It helps you keep your Tasks page tidy by hiding any unnecessary or mistakenly created tasks - without permanently removing them from the app.
This ensures your product data remains safe and prevents any unintended data loss.
**Step to manage:**
1. From the app dashboard page > Click on the **Tasks** section > Find the task you want to "archive"
2. Click on the **3-dot button** > Choose **Archive**
3. After choosing "archive", the task will be hidden immediately. You can find back the archived tasks in the **Archived** section:
* ***Note:***
The task can only be set as archive if it has already been **completed or reverted**. Tasks that are still **running or in pause** won't work with this archive setting.
When a task is archived, you can no longer perform actions like **Undo**, **Apply now**, **Run again**, etc.\
You’ll need to **unarchive** the task first.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.samita.io/bulk-price-editor-sami/manage-task/set-unnecessary-tasks-as-archived.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
