Archive

Remarks:

The "Archive" object contains project information like the name, the source archive and other properties. The archive also is the basis for "ArchiveVariables" and "ArchiveFilters".

The "ArchiveVariables" object contains all archive variables. Each archive variable contains further projecting information.

With the "ArchiveFilters" object you can define and execute dynamic filters. In a filter you can define the variables from which you need the values. Additionally you can define the time period and the status. On executing the filter you get a list with all Runtime variables for that filter.
