# Archive and Unarchive RCS Templates

Archiving a template removes it from the active RCS templates list without permanently deleting it. You can view archived templates separately and unarchive them when needed.

#### Archive an RCS Template

To archive an RCS template:

1. Go to Templates from the left sidebar.
