Exclude info of hidden layers from the search result in the Instant App Zone Lookup Template

Question

Now that we have the layer list to show or hide each layer in the map view, is there an option to exclude the information of hidden layers from the search result? Sometimes, When I create a map with many layers, it is ideal not to display all information at a time, but to enable the user to select which layers they want to look at.

Thank you! I have done this already. My further question is: can we give our users the flexibility to choose which layers' info to be shown in the side panel. Say I have 25 layers of different initiative programs of the city; based on selected parcel, one user wants to look at the first 5 programs, while another user wants to look at the last 7 programs. In this case, I still need to include all of these layers in the result, but there will be too much to read for the user who only look for information from some of the layers. Is it doable in this template. Or can I achieve the same result with other templates/Experience builder?

When configuring the Zone Lookup app you can choose which layers will appear in the search results. To find the layer configuration options go to the Zone Lookup section and choose Options and then choose the layers to include in results for your search type.
