Restore a previously archived use case by setting its status back to `active`.

**Required scope:** `vision-events:manage`

{% openapi src="/files/XCSsl1XUH9tiFJObaN6D" path="/vision-events/use-cases/{useCaseId}/unarchive" method="post" %}
[openapi.yaml](https://1284666567-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fe5GEiPeDoFksvZv1vH3A%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-d74beeed17fc5b3f8e39dcc93a9e9adaa7837101%2Fopenapi.yaml?alt=media)
{% endopenapi %}

### Path Parameters

* **`useCaseId`** (string, required): The ID of the use case to unarchive.

### Example Request

```bash
curl -X POST "https://api.roboflow.com/vision-events/use-cases/a1b3c8e1/unarchive" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
```

### Example Response

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="200" %}

```json
{
  "success": true
}
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="400" %}

```json
{
  "error": "Solution is not archived"
}
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="404" %}

```json
{
  "error": "Solution not found"
}
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="403" %}

```json
{
  "error": "Insufficient permissions for this resource."
}
```

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

### Notes

* Only use cases with an `inactive` status can be unarchived. Attempting to unarchive an already active use case will return a `400` error.
* Once unarchived, the use case will appear in active listings and accept new event ingestion again.
