Dataset Archiving Parameters?

We recently had a dataset auto-archive because it was not accessed in a long time. Can somebody explain what the parameters are for when Domo will decide to archive a dataset? Additionally, is there a way to prevent this from happening with a specific dataset?

Regards,

Jack

    This KB article may give you a better idea of what is happening. Not sure it fully answers your questions. The way to prevent this from happening is by having content query the data, such as cards and dashboards. The nice thing is that if a dataset becomes non-queryable the data will still update and be used in dataflows, but won't be "actively queried" meaning able to be used in visualizations.
