Today I came across a problem that I wasnÂ’t aware of. The problem being that it appears archived caches donÂ’t appear in pocket queries, thus our database contain incorrect info.
I visited “Maccamob Challenge 2Ââ€
GSAK & Archived caches
-
- 550 or more Caches found

Haven't heard of a macro being available, but that doesn't mean there's not one out there
<p>
We tend to run a visual check as part of our upload procedure for the weekly queries we get - import new logs, then do a sort by 'last update' column. There are often half a dozen caches or so that don't get updated each time, these tend to be ones that are temporarily offline, or have been archived.
<p>
It's then a quick process to check each cache individually, and download individual gpx files to confirm their status. If the cache is back online by the next time we get a pocket query for that region, then we'll get a message in GSAK to say the cache is online again. Works for us, anyway
