New API parameters for project card archiving

2018-06-27T07:00:00Z

We're adding some API parameters to support the new project card archiving feature.

Archiving and restoring a project's cards

To archive a card, use the Update a project card API endpoint, passing true for the archived parameter. To restore an archived card, use the same API endpoint, passing false for the archived parameter.

Viewing a column's archived cards

When using the List project cards API endpoint, you can now specify whether or not you'd like to see a column's archived cards. By default, you will only see cards in the column that are not archived, but if you pass "archived" for the archived_state parameter, you will see that column's archived cards instead. If you pass "all" for the archived_state parameter, you will see every card in the column, whether or not it is archived.

Preview period

To access these new parameters during the preview period, you must provide a custom media type in the Accept header:

application/vnd.github.inertia-preview+json

During the preview period, we may change aspects of these API parameters based on developer feedback. If we do, we will announce the changes here on the developer blog, but we will not provide any advance notice.

If you have any questions or feedback, please let us know!
