# Archive Tunnel Certificate

POST /v1/tunnels/{tunnel_id}/certificates/{certificate_id}/archive

The Tunnels API is in research preview. It requires the anthropic-beta: mcp-tunnels-2026-06-22 header and may change without a deprecation period. It supersedes the Admin API endpoints at /v1/organizations/tunnels, which remain available during a migration window.

Archives a tunnel certificate, removing it from the set Anthropic trusts for the tunnel. The certificate record is retained. Archiving the last non-archived certificate is permitted; the tunnel rejects MCP traffic until a new certificate is added.

# Path parameters

tunnel_id: string
certificate_id: string

# Headers

"anthropic-beta": optional array of AnthropicBeta

Optional header to specify the beta version(s) you want to use.
