Salesforce Archive

Operate Salesforce Archive (also called Trusted Services Archive) through its Connect API and the ArchiveActivity job-metadata object. This skill covers how to search and restore archived records, run the analyzer, handle RTBF erasure and PII masking, check storage, and — the part most often missed — how to read archive job status from ArchiveActivity and use a job's Id + Type to download its logs.

Scope

In scope: Calling the Archive Connect API operations under /platform/data-resilience/archive/; querying the ArchiveActivity object via SOQL/Connect; correlating a job's ArchiveActivity record with its log-download endpoints; the verify-after-write pattern for each async operation.

Out of scope: Defining archive policies / ArchivePolicyDefinition metadata; building UI; generating Flows over archive data (ArchiveActivity is not Flow-queryable — see Gotchas); generic backup/export tooling unrelated to the add-on.

Required Inputs

Gather or infer before acting:

Operation intent: search (this is also how you view archived records), unarchive, analyze, mask, RTBF, storage check, or job-status/log lookup.

Target sObject (sobjectName): required for search and unarchive.

Filters: search and unarchive require sobjectName + at least one filter.

For log downloads: the requestId (an ArchiveActivity Id, 8qv… prefix) of a completed, log-producing job, and reportType = that activity's Type.
