Updating, archiving, and restoring properties

An important part of keeping your data set clean is archiving, deleting, and restoring properties as needed. Read on for steps to do all of these things.

Reviewing & Updating Property Details

Once you’ve defined a property, you can review it by navigating to Definitions > Properties, searching for the property, and clicking on it in the list that appears.

On the Property details page, you can see the following:

  • Data type (ID, number, text, or auto-detect)
  • The property history (when it was created, verified, and last edited)
  • Any notes added to the property

You can edit the property definition in the Edit Property Criteria’ section further down the page, and review the full event history at the bottom.

Archiving Properties

To archive a property, from the Definitions > Properties page, click the property to open up the property details, then open the menu in the top-right and select Archive.

To archive multiple properties at once, from the properties tab, click the checkboxes next to the properties, then click the archive button at the top.

You can also use shift-click to select a large section of properties between two properties. So if you have:

  • Property A
  • Property B
  • Property C
  • Property D
  • Property E

Click Property A and then shift-click Property E to select Properties A, B, C, D, E.

Restoring Archived Properties

See the Restoring Archived Definitions section of the Data Cleanup guide for complete steps to restore archived properties.
