# Reactivate a feature

> For the complete machine-readable documentation index, see [llms.txt](https://apidocs.chargebee.com/llms.txt).


[Idempotency Supported](/docs/api/idempotency)

Reactivates an archived feature so that **new** [entitlements](/docs/api/entitlements) or [subscription entitlements](/docs/api/subscription_entitlements) can be created towards the feature. This operation changes the [status](/docs/api/features/feature-object#status) of the feature to `active`.

### Prerequisites & Constraints

-   Only a feature in `archived` status can be reactivated.
-   Calling this endpoint on a feature that is already `active` returns it unchanged.
-   A `draft` feature cannot be reactivated using this endpoint. Use [Activate a feature](/docs/api/features/activate-a-feature) instead.

## Sample Request
