Response

Returns 204 No Content on success. There is no response body. Archived advertisers are excluded from List advertisers unless you pass status=ARCHIVED or status=ALL. Archiving does not hide the advertiser’s children: its campaigns, media buys, and creatives remain listable and readable. They are read-only, though — a campaign under an archived advertiser cannot be launched, paused, or resumed until the advertiser is restored. It also releases the advertiser’s name — uniqueness applies to active advertisers only — so a new advertiser may be created with the same name. See Archive / restore for the full semantics, including the CONFLICT a later restore returns when the name is taken.
