Moving Workspaces to an Archive

We need to move project workspaces to an Archive - Project workspace. I see its been done in the past because there are plenty of old projects residing in there already. The previous Owner/Admin has left the company and there are no instructions and I don't see any options in the submenus.

I'm an Admin to the Archive workspace and to the project workspaces. How do I move those workspaces?

    From my understanding, you should only be able to move workspace content - not the workspaces themselves into other workspaces. I would create a new folder in the archive workspace then move all of the content from the old workspace into the correct folder in the archived one.

    Hi @Anne Brinkman

    I hope you're well and safe!

    Are you using Control Center?

    Can you describe your process in more detail and maybe share the sheet(s)/copies of the sheet(s) or some screenshots? (Delete/replace any confidential/sensitive information before sharing) That would make it easier to help. (share too, andree@workbold.com)

    I hope that helps!

    Be safe and have a fantastic week!

    Best,
