Archive a project in Azure DevOps
Is there a way to archive projects? I'd like to hide the project from the organization home page. I don't want to delete it. Thanks

Hi gresdawg ,
Have you considered the following workaround?
1. Create a special identity (e.g. DevOps Archive Admin) in AAD.
2. Modify permissions of those old projects by setting that identity as the only Project Administrator and remove other members and groups. In this way they can become invisible to regular users.
3. In case of an audit, login to AzDO with this identity to show auditors all those "hidden" projects.
I'm curious if you see any issues for using this approach.
