Hide columns on the table widget

[JoseBarrios1]

The current experience builder table widget allow you to remove fields that you don't want to show up on the data table, however it will be great if the setting also allow you to just hide or only select the default fields that you want to publish on the table and let the user enable the fields that they want to see.

It's a good point! We'll consider it. Thank you!

@TianWen any idea when this might be implemented?

The capability has been added in the November 2022 release of the online edition.

Where can the fields be turned off? I'm still seeing a show/hide columns button at the top of my table and it lists all fields. I don't want the user to see everything.

hi SarahRijneke

To enable or disable columns (fields) available and visible at startup in the ArcGIS Experience Builder Table widget, first click on the Table widget to open the configuration panel on the right. Ensure the correct data source (e.g., “EELS_2025-Symbology”) is selected under the Sheet configuration section. Under “Configure fields,” choose “Customize” from the dropdown. Then click “Select fields for initial display” to open a list of available fields. In this list (as shown in the image), use the checkboxes to select which fields should be available to users, and use the eye icon next to each field to control whether the field is visible at startup—an open eye icon means the field will be displayed when the table loads, while a crossed-out eye means it’s hidden initially but still accessible to users. For example, in the image, both “FID” and “Program” are selected and have visible eye icons, meaning they will both appear in the table at startup. Once selections are made, close the configuration and preview the app to ensure the correct fields are shown or hidden as intended.
