In the dropdown, you’ll find a list of column names, each with a corresponding checkbox. These checkboxes allow you to tailor your table view:

  • To hide a column: Uncheck the box next to the column name, and watch it disappear from your table.
  • To show a column: Check the box beside the column name you want to display, and it will reappear in the table.

Your adjustments are applied instantly, reshaping your table as per your choices.

Some columns in your table are linked to specific filters. When you hide these columns, the corresponding filters are also hidden to maintain relevancy in your data view.

If you choose to hide a column linked to active filters, a special icon (often a filter icon) appears next to its name in the dropdown. This icon alerts you that hiding this column will also impact the active filters.

The solid icon denotes that the filter is currently displayed.
The empty icon signifies that the filter is concealed.
The green variations indicate that these filters, whether active or hidden, are currently affecting the data visible in your resulting table.

Your Preferences, Remembered

Your customized settings are saved in your browser, ensuring that you find the table just as you customized it during your last visit.

Resetting to the Default View
