Search including Archived Contacts

Feature Request

When Searching for a Contact, should be able to see the contacts which are archived. For example, maybe I archive John Smith and then meet him in person and realize I want to add him but don't remember that he is archived. I might end up searching for his name, not finding him, and creating a new contact while I should really just be restoring that Archive from LinkedIn contact.

    We all want a large network, so we rarely delete contacts. It’s fine to ‘archive’ certain contacts to save resources. When I’m looking for someone in my CRM, I need to be able to find the contact with a single search, not have to carry out two separate searches. That’s tedious and not ideal in terms of usability.

    For me, this isn’t a feature request, but a bug in the search function.

    @Matthew Silberman How's Stauts? Thanks

    Yes, without this, I am super hesitant to archive any contacts since I would never be able to find them again later (unless I specifically remembered that I archived them). Clogs up my data contact list!

    I was also looking for this feature. Using Google Keep Notes, I have the habit to search for information stored in notes I already archived.
