Brightspot CMS User Guide

Archiving and deleting administrative objects


An administrative object is almost anything an administrator creates in Brightspot. Most of the options in the Admin menu, such as sites, users, roles, and dashboards, pertain to administrative objects.

Archiving keeps the administrative object accessible within Brightspot, but it is not visible to your visitors.

You can permanently delete an archived administrative object, after which it cannot be restored. For details, see Permanently deleting administrative objects.
