The archive access tier has the lowest storage cost. But it has higher data retrieval costs compared to the hot and cool tiers. Data in the archive tier can take several hours to retrieve. Data must remain in the archive tier for at least 180 days or be subject to an early deletion charge.

While a blob is in archive storage, the blob data is offline and can't be read, copied, overwritten, or modified. You can't take snapshots of a blob in archive storage. However, the blob metadata remains online and available, allowing you to list the blob and its properties. For blobs in archive, the only valid operations are GetBlobProperties, GetBlobMetadata, ListBlobs, SetBlobTier, and DeleteBlob.

Blob-level tiering allows you to change the tier of your data at the object level using a single operation called [Set Blob Tier](/rest/api/storageservices/set-blob-tier). You can easily change the access tier of a blob among the hot, cool, or archive tiers as usage patterns change, without having to move data between accounts. All tier changes happen immediately. However, rehydrating a blob from archive can take several hours.

The time of the last blob tier change is exposed via the **Access Tier Change Time** blob property. If a blob is in the archive tier, it can't be overwritten, so uploading the same blob isn't permitted in this scenario. When overwriting a blob in the hot or cool tier, the newly created blob inherits the tier of the blob that was overwritten unless the new blob access tier is explicitly set on creation.

During rehydration, you may use the get blob properties operation to poll the **Archive Status** attribute and confirm when the tier change is complete. The status reads "rehydrate-pending-to-hot" or "rehydrate-pending-to-cool" depending on the destination tier. Upon completion, the archive status property is removed, and the **Access Tier** blob property reflects the new hot or cool tier.
