Overview

Field hiding lets the AI ignore certain fields during queries. When a field is hidden, the AI does not consider its data when analyzing and answering questions — useful for excluding irrelevant or sensitive fields.

How to use it

Open the Data Overview tab on the data source detail page, select a table on the left, and use the Hidden column in the field table to control fields individually:
  1. Find the field you want to hide
  2. Turn on the toggle in the Hidden column
  3. The change takes effect immediately — the AI will ignore this column when answering questions

Use cases

  • Exclude sensitive information: hide fields with sensitive data so the AI does not use them when processing queries
  • Improve query efficiency: hiding irrelevant fields reduces the amount of data the AI analyzes, improving performance
  • Simplify analysis: hide auxiliary fields that don’t need to participate in analysis

Notes

  • Once hidden, a field is fully ignored when the AI generates SQL and answers questions
  • Hiding takes effect immediately — no extra save needed
  • You can unhide a field at any time if you need it for analysis later
  • If you want to mask a field rather than hide it entirely (for example, phone numbers or ID numbers), use the Masking column in the field table instead
