I need help with search syntax


Recommended Posts

Hi everybody,

There are a few hours that I'm trying to search all the notes created in a certain year. I want to make a notebook for every year  since I'm using Evernote.

Can you help me please with the right string to write in the search field?

Thank you very much

Try created:20180101 -created:20190101 for 2018 notes.  Adjust the 18 and 19 for other years.

Simpler version is created:2018* -created:2019*.  Same applies for adjusting for other years.  Syntax for this is find all notes created from 2018 on but remove all notes created from 2019 on.

The search feature is documented at https://help.evernote.com/hc/en-us/articles/208313828

Date searches are complicated; for example notes created in 2018  
A search for   created:20180101 retrieves all notes with a date > 20180101   
you have to apply a max limit   created:20190101    
As per @CalS, the search statement is    created:20180101 -created:20190101

sorry, but this one doesn't work

Sorry, I omitted the created: parameter
I also removed the / delimiters from the dates
