SharePoint Document Archiving including MetaData

Does anybody know if it is possible to retain the meta data associated with documents (e.g. additional columns in document libraries) when they are archived?

  • If I understand your question, yes, the metadata if kept when you archive.

    Here is a short video explaining features released with EV 8 sp3.

  • Hi Tony Thanks for your help regarding this issue. You are correct, it appears that the extra columns in the document library are being recorded in the archive. But I am unable to view these colums until I restore the particular version of the document. Is it possible to view these extra colums for all the versions of a document in the archive? Thanks
