Archive a Dream

BetaDream beta().dreams().archive(params = DreamArchiveParams.none(), requestOptions = RequestOptions.none())
POST/v1/dreams/{dream_id}/archive

Hide a completed, failed, or canceled dream from the default list of dreams.

Archiving a pending or running dream returns a 400 error, so cancel it first. Archiving an archived dream returns it unchanged. An archived dream can still be fetched by ID. Archiving can't be undone.

See the Dreams guide to learn more about archiving dreams.

Parameters
DreamArchiveParams params
Optional<String> dreamId⁠Path parameter

The ID of the dream to archive (drm_...).

Optional<List<AnthropicBeta>> betas⁠Header parameter

This endpoint is in beta: requests must send dreaming-2026-04-21 in this header.

Optional<String> workspaceId⁠Header parameter

Optional header to select the Workspace for this request. The value is a Workspace ID (for example, wrkspc_011CZkZaBF1tNoB5wlCeusgy).

Only needed for credentials that can act on more than one Workspace. A credential that belongs to a specific Workspace may omit it; if sent, it must match that Workspace.

Returns
class BetaDream { type; id; archivedAt; /* 11 more */ }

An asynchronous job that reads a memory store and past sessions, then writes a reorganized version of that memory store.

By default the dream writes its result to a new memory store and doesn't change the input memory store. With output_behavior set to update_existing, it writes its result into the input memory store instead.

The Dreams API is in research preview: the request and response shapes are volatile and may change without the deprecation period that applies to generally-available endpoints.

See the Dreams guide for what a dream reads and produces.
