Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Normally, the post type archive slug will be the same as post type slug.

For instance, if you created post type "Books" with post type slug "book" then the post type archive to access all book post type posts will be: hidden link

Now, if you want to change the archive slug something else instead of "book" then you can use that feature where in the input box you can add your desired slug to access your book post type archive.

You will have to make sure that the slug should be unique and should not be used before with any of post type, posts, taxonomy, terms etc..etc..
