Archive lists the clips saved from your cameras. A clip stays in the archive until someone deletes it.
Clips are listed with the newest first. Each finished clip shows a snapshot, the clip time, the clip name, and the camera name. A clip that is still being created shows Processing. A clip that could not be created shows Failed to create clip. Only Delete is available for those clips.
If nothing matches the current filters, the page shows We didn't find any records and suggests changing the filters or adding clips to the archive.
An Auditor user must select a site before any clips are shown.

Manage a clip
On the archive list, move the pointer over a finished clip. Share, Download, and Delete appear on the snapshot.
Share
Select Share the clip. The dialog title is Share clip.
Under Link expires in, choose 12 hours, 1 day, or 1 week. The link is created as soon as you choose a period. Copy it with Copy link. The button changes to Copied... after the link is copied.
Anyone with the link can open the clip in a browser until the link expires. Choosing the same period again replaces the previous link for that period.
If passwords are enabled for shared clips, the dialog also shows Password. The password is created with the link. The viewer must enter it and select View clip. Copy it with Copy password. Without the password, the page asks for one and says the link is protected. An expired link shows Clip link expired.
Select Cancel to close the dialog. Closing it does not remove a link that was already created.
Download
Select Download the clip to save the clip as an MP4 file.
Delete
Select Delete the clip. The dialog asks Do you want to delete this clip? and shows the clip name. Confirm to remove the clip from the archive. On success, a message says the archive was deleted. This cannot be undone from the archive list.
