[Sub-accounts](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/sub-accounts?hsLang=en) # What is the Archive Sub-Account feature? The archive sub-account feature is a tool for removing inactive sub-accounts from the main Sub-Accounts' list , i.e. sub-accounts that don't have a balance and haven't produced hashrate for the last 24 hours or longer. Part of implementing this feature involved creating a tabbed layout in the Sub-Accounts' view to display active sub-accounts in one tab and archived sub-accounts in the other: ![](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-20-2024-08-34-35-1107-PM.png?width=688&height=172&name=image-png-Sep-20-2024-08-34-35-1107-PM.png) ### Using archived sub-account feature: Archiving a sub-account - To archive a sub-account, navigate to the Sub-Accounts view and select a sub-account from the list in the "Active Sub-Accounts" tab that has a 1 hr Hashrate average of zero and zero active workers such as the sub-account **aaa** shown in the screenshot below: ![](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-23-2024-07-36-22-0621-PM.png?width=688&height=304&name=image-png-Sep-23-2024-07-36-22-0621-PM.png) - Click on the sub-account's name to be navigate to its detail view - On the Dashboard, verify the 24 hour hashrate average for the selected sub-account is also zero as shown for **aaa's** dashboard here: ![](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-23-2024-07-39-32-3401-PM.png?width=688&height=194&name=image-png-Sep-23-2024-07-39-32-3401-PM.png) - Next, select the Transactions' tab and confirm the balance of the sub-account is zero. ![](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-23-2024-07-42-09-0529-PM.png?width=688&height=157&name=image-png-Sep-23-2024-07-42-09-0529-PM.png) - Once you've confirmed the balance and the hashrate (24 hour average) are both zero, navigate back to the Sub-Accounts' view and click on the "Archive" button next to the sub-account you want to archive: ![](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-23-2024-07-45-52-2094-PM.png?width=688&height=304&name=image-png-Sep-23-2024-07-45-52-2094-PM.png) - Lets demonstrate this by archiving sub-account **aaa**. When we click the "archive" button, a confirmation dialog will appear: ![](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-23-2024-07-52-08-5487-PM.png?width=688&height=219&name=image-png-Sep-23-2024-07-52-08-5487-PM.png) - if you click the "Archive" button, you should receive a "success" message as shown here: ![](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-23-2024-07-57-12-2471-PM.png?width=688&height=232&name=image-png-Sep-23-2024-07-57-12-2471-PM.png) - And if you switch to the "Archived Sub-Accounts" tab, you'll now see the sub-account **aaa** listed here instead of in the "Active Sub-Accounts" tab: ![](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-23-2024-07-58-59-5501-PM.png?width=688&height=287&name=image-png-Sep-23-2024-07-58-59-5501-PM.png) ### Using archive sub-account feature: Unarchiving a sub-account - You can unarchive a sub-account by simply navigating to the Archived Sub-Accounts tab, selecting the sub-account you wish to unarchive and click the Unarchive button. - We'll demonstrate unarchiving using the same sub-account that we just archived: **aaa** - Click the unarchive button located in the "Un-Archive" column, in the row displaying the data for sub-account **aaa**: ![](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-23-2024-08-06-38-2251-PM.png?width=688&height=287&name=image-png-Sep-23-2024-08-06-38-2251-PM.png) - You'll again be prompted to confirm the action with a dialog. If you wish to continue, click "Un-Archive" ![](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-23-2024-08-09-01-8312-PM.png?width=688&height=287&name=image-png-Sep-23-2024-08-09-01-8312-PM.png) - Again, you should see a "success" message when the sub-account is unarchived successfully: ![](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-23-2024-08-12-00-7376-PM.png?width=688&height=300&name=image-png-Sep-23-2024-08-12-00-7376-PM.png) - When you switch to the "Active Sub-Accounts" tab, you should now see your unarchived sub-account in the list **Reporting visibility:** While archived, a sub-account is excluded from Reports/exports. Unarchive to include it in new report runs.  ### Accessing Data from Archived Sub-Accounts You do not need to unarchive a sub-account to access its historical data and reports.Archived sub-accounts retain full access to all historical information and reporting capabilities. #### What You Can Access When a sub-account is archived, you can still: - **Review Historical Data** - Click on any archived sub-account to view: - Past hashrate data - Transaction history - Daily earnings - Daily statistics - Worker history - All other historical metrics - **Export Reports** - Export Daily Stats and other reports directly from archived sub-accounts #### How to Access Archived Sub-Account Data 1. Navigate to the Sub-Accounts view 2. Click on the "Archived Sub-Accounts" tab 3. Click on the name of the archived sub-account you want to review 4. Access any statistics, reports, or historical data as you would with an active sub-account All standard viewing and export features work exactly the same for archived sub-accounts as they do for active ones. ### Functional Differences for Archived Sub-Accounts The only functional difference for archived sub-accounts is that the stratum server will not accept new shares from them. This means: - Workers cannot connect and mine to archived sub-accounts - No new hashrate will be recorded All other functionality—including data access, reporting, and historical analysis—remains fully operational without requiring you to unarchive the sub-account. - [Getting started](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/getting-started?hsLang=en) - [Alerts](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/alerts?hsLang=en) - [API](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/api?hsLang=en) - [Controls and Security](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/controls-and-security?hsLang=en) - [Feedback](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/feedback?hsLang=en) - [Hashrate](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/hashrate?hsLang=en) - [Mining](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/mining?hsLang=en) - [Payouts](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/payouts?hsLang=en#main-content) - [FPPS Calculations](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/payouts?hsLang=en#fpps-calculations) - [Pool Fees](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/payouts?hsLang=en#pool-fees) - [Statistics](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/statistics?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Shares](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/statistics?hsLang=en#shares) - [Stratum](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/stratum?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Proxy](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/stratum?hsLang=en#proxy) - [Sub-accounts](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/sub-accounts?hsLang=en) - [Users](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/users?hsLang=en) - [Workers](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/workers?hsLang=en) - [Foundry USA Pool Onboarding](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/foundry-usa-pool-onboarding?hsLang=en) - [FAQs](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/faqs?hsLang=en) - [Reports](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/reports?hsLang=en) - [Foundry Home](https://foundrydigital.com/) [![Chill listening crop-3](https://pool-faq.foundrydigital.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Foundry-USA-Pool.png?width=52&height=24&name=Foundry-USA-Pool.png "Chill listening crop-3")](http://foundrydigital.com) foundrydigital.com Help Center Copyright © 2026, Foundry Digital LLC
