Frequently Asked Questions
What is an archived user in Google Workspace?
An archived user is an account for a former employee where their data is retained but the user cannot actively log in or use services. This plan allows you to keep their data accessible.
How does this plan differ from a regular Google Workspace license?
A regular license provides full access and services for an active employee. This archived user plan is for retaining data only, at a reduced cost, for users who have left the organization.
Can I reactivate an archived user account later?
This plan is specifically for archiving. If you need to reactivate a user, you would typically assign them a new active license, which is a separate process and cost.
