NEGATIVE_KEYWORD_ARCHIVED Negative Keyword is Archived

Negative Keyword Archived Mutation

Cannot perform operations on an archived negative keyword.

What causes this error?

You tried to modify, enable, pause, or tweak a negative keyword that was previously archived. In Amazon Advertising, ‘Archived’ means permanently deleted. It is entirely immutable.

How to fix it

You cannot bring an archived negative keyword back to life. You’ll need to create a brand new negative keyword if you want to run it again. Also, make sure to add logic to your scripts so you filter out ‘state: ARCHIVED’ items going forward!
