There are two types of "note archiving" that happen on Amplenote. This page will describe the impact of each type of archiving, plus how to unarchive.

link Effect of note being archived

Any archived note, and the tasks in the archived note, will:

Still show up in most places a non-archived note does:

Search results

Quick Open results

The menu to link to a note

Task View pane (that is, the tasks in an archived note show up when you click the "Tasks" pane)

Not show up in a couple places:

Tasks from an archived note will not be visible in task list shown next to the calendar

In the "Active Notes" list shown on the Calendar View

Not have its content automatically cached (saving memory), but text content is still indexed in search results and is still available offline

Have a different icon shown next to it in search results

Explicitly archived notes (notes that you designate as "Archived" from the triple-dot note menu) will additionally:

Not show up in notes list

Not show up in the Quick Open menu

Not show up in the note linking menu

Show up in search results

Show up when clicking the "Archived" label, below your list of tags

link First type of archive: Auto-archived

When a note hasn't been opened in 30 days, it has the auto-archived tag applied to it.

Opening an auto-archived note will automatically remove the auto-archived tag.

link Preventing individual notes from being auto-archived

Using the More options menu at the top right of the note, you can choose to add the current note to a list of notes excepted from the auto-archiving rules:

open_in_new

link Preventing tags from being auto-archived

It’s also possible to prevent auto-archiving for all of the notes that have a particular tag applied. This can be useful if you have a “projects” tag whose notes may be rarely changed, but the tasks from those notes should still be visible in the calendar drag-and-drop list indefinitely.
