Can sys_audit_role be archived by changing no_archive=true to no_archive=false?

Hi Community,

We are using the OOB Audit Roles [sys_audit_role] table to track user role additions and removals.

In our instance, the Dictionary entry for sys_audit_role has the attribute:

no_archive=true

Because of this, the table is not available for standard ServiceNow Archive Rules.

 I would like to understand the following:

1)Is sys_audit_role officially supported for archiving?

2)What is the purpose of no_archive=true on this table?

3)What would happen if we changed it to no_archive=false?

4)Would changing this attribute allow us to create a standard Archive Rule for sys_audit_role?

5)Are there any known risks or upgrade/customization impacts from changing this OOB attribute?

6)If archiving sys_audit_role is not supported, what is the recommended ServiceNow approach for long-term retention of these audit records?

7)We are using the Zurich release and would prefer an OOB/supported solution rather than customizing the audit mechanism.

Any guidance or official documentation would be appreciated.
