Archiving and deleting screens in an InVision V7 prototype V7

Sometimes you may need to remove screens from your prototype. Depending on your needs, you can either archive or delete screens.

Archiving vs deleting

Archiving a screen removes that screen from your prototype. However, it can be restored at any time. Restoring a screen will also restore any comments or hotspots that were on that screen.

Deleting a screen permanently removes that screen—and any of its comments or hotspots—from your prototype. This action cannot be undone.

Archiving screens

You can archive individual screens, or you can archive multiple screens at once.

Archiving a single screen

To archive a single screen:

1. Sign in to InVision V7 and open your prototype.
2. Hover over a screen and click the ••• (more) menu.
3. Click Archive.
4. To confirm, click Yes, Archive.

Archiving multiple screens

To archive multiple screens:

1. Sign in to InVision V7 and open your prototype.
2. Hover over a screen and, at the top left, check the circle. Repeat this step for each screen you want to archive. To select multiple screens in a row, select the first one, hold Shift, and select the last screen in the series.
   
   If you want to archive all screens, select at least one screen, navigate to the bottom toolbar, and click Select all.
3. In the bottom toolbar, click the ••• (more) menu, then click Archive.

Restoring archived screens

At any time, you can restore an archived screen back to your prototype. This will also restore any hotspots or comments on those screens.
