Hi Sabyasachi, you can unpublish/hide articles by setting “expiration dates”. You can refer to below feature guide for more information.

[https://ebrain.egain.com/kb/featureguides/content/EASY-8855/Availability-and-Expiration-Dates](https://ebrain.egain.com/kb/featureguides/content/EASY-8855/Availability-and-Expiration-Dates)

We currently don’t have any out of the box functionality to archive articles. [eGain Feature Guide](https://ebrain.egain.com/kb/featureguides/home) has great information explaining various features of eGain products.
