Repository admins can archive pull requests
UpdateVerifiedAdded Sep 22, 2026
Repository admins can now archive pull requests to remove them from public view without permanently deleting them. When a pull request is archived, it is closed and locked. Pull requests can be archived in bulk or on an individual basis. Archived pull requests are only visible to repository admins, and non-admin visitors to the URL receive a 404 response.
