Nice! I’m going to try that out in my personal (non-family) organization. Moving everything out of my Archive collection to unassigned. It might be sufficient for my purposes.
EDIT:
Initial impressions: I like the accounts not showing up generally. I think this is my preferred archive workaround so far. However, I’m concerned about why I cannot export any items (assigned to a collection or not) as it would be nice to be able to export the archived account list.
Observations
It’s a bit clunky, but could be added to the workarounds others have suggested. I couldn’t find a way to move items straight to an organization without assigning a collection. I could not unassign collections in the browser extension. Depending on preferences, some may not like that the only way to access archive items in in the web vault > admin console, others might really like that.
Process to use this method:
- Move items to a collection (“Archive”) in your (personal) organization
- Login to the Admin Console and
- Remove the assigned collection.
When moved to an org and removed from all collections:
- Items disappear from the browser extension!
- Items are not included in reports!
- Items can be viewed
- Export? My Personal organization export was empty (no items from assigned or unassigned collections.) Also, Items didn’t show up in the export of My Vault.
Side Note
I noticed changes to the web-vault didn’t cause my browser extension to sync.
