# List a board's archived cards

`GET https://evohub.io/api/v1/board/boards/{boardID}/archive`

Part of the [Board API](https://docs.evohub.io/board.md) reference · operationId `listArchivedCards`.

Cards that have left the board, most recently archived first. An
archived card is deleted for good 730 days after it was archived
(`deletes_at`). `total` counts the archive under the same search;
`deleting_soon` counts the cards to be deleted within 30 days,
whatever the search. Continue with `after` set to the last card's
`id` while `has_more` is true.

Requires the `board:card:read` scope.
