Hello, I have exactly the same need. Too much board in the main page. And some of them concerns old projects. So I don’t want to delete them but to put them apart to have a main page cleaner. It will take to much time to create a project on the current topics.

I also have the same need. We have boards no one has touched in a long time, sometimes where the owner has left the organization. I was writing a script to do this for me, but what I would like is:

• Let me bulk select a bunch of boards or entire projects OR let me select every board that hasn’t been updated in the last 6/9/12 months, then
• Give me the option to archive them. If I say yes, print a PDF of each into my file share/SharePoint. [and if the board owner didn’t create any frames, create a frame then print]. Name the PDF files with a naming convention that helps me find it later, maybe something like ProjectName/BoardName/OwnerName/CreateDate.
• Put them in the trash, where they can wait for a bit then either get perma-deleted with a new retention policy or get rescued by me/another admin if someone suddenly decides they need it.

If you want to make my life MUCH easier, then extend the concept of the retention policy so I can automatically put boards in the trash when no one touches them in a while.

Please please please consider this feature. When I search for it I see folks asking for archive capabilities stretching back for 5 years. We’ve got so many boards at my company that we can’t delete but need to declutter. An archive would be such a life saver.
