Hey @ZChurney3,

It’s not possible natively within the UI but what you are trying to do could technically be achieved using the [Files API](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/api/files/files). You can read file data, check the upload date and move to appropriate folder for archiving. You could even delete files if you’d prefer. I appreciate this isn’t the exact answer you wanted but for transparency I wanted to include it in case it was a viable option for someone else!
