Overview

Sequences are outreach campaigns with sequential emails, touchpoints, and tasks that you can customize to engage your target contacts at scale. You can archive unused sequences in Apollo, so you can organize active sequences without deleting useful content that you may want to reference later.

Check out the following sections to archive and unarchive a sequence.

Review Archived Sequences

A sequence can be archived in one of two ways:

  • Manual archiving: A user from your team archived the sequence.
  • Automatic archiving: Apollo automatically archives sequences that have been inactive for six months.

You can review archived sequences at any time. You can also check a sequence's activity log to confirm why it was archived. To do this:

  1. Launch Apollo and click Sequences.
  2. Click Show filters.
  3. Under Status, select Archived.
  4. Click the archived sequence you want to review, then click Activity.
  5. The most recent activity log entry tells you whether the sequence was archived manually by a user or automatically by Apollo. Activity

You've now confirmed whether the sequence was archived manually or automatically.

Next Steps

Check out these additional resources on Apollo sequences to keep your team’s outreach organized and performing.

Create a Sequence Use build a new sequence from scratch, a template, or a clone to get a clean replacement running fast whenever you retire an older campaign.
Add Contacts to a Sequence Try enroll contacts from search, lists, CSV, or automations to keep pipeline coverage steady while archived sequences are out of rotation.
Manage Sequence Rulesets Set your guardrails once and scale them—apply a ruleset across multiple sequences to keep your team from emailing the wrong people as campaigns come and go.
Organize Sequences and Email Templates with Folders Keep your workspace from turning into a graveyard—sort sequences and templates into folders (and subfolders) to make the “active vs. archived” split instantly obvious.
Report on Sequences When you’re cleaning house, pull sequence analytics for a single sequence or the whole team to decide what’s worth reviving, cloning, or leaving archived.
