Sorry, this is likely a very old question but I can't seem to get search to find me the answer. Been looking in to PF2e in the Archives and noticed there isn't a spell failure chance in the armor chart. Does armor effect spell casting in 2e? Thanks.

No. No spell failure risk while wearing armor.
Do be aware that wearing armor that you are not proficient in will have poor results. The proficiency rules will reduce the proficiency bonus to zero. All you will get is the static item bonus and DEX bonus. Past about level 2, it will be better to just wear no armor and use your unarmored proficiency.
But if you get armor proficiency, you can wear and use that level of armor as a spellcaster without any problems.
