Show field to admin users

Understand showing a field only to admin users

  1. Applicable to the following fields: all except auto number, formula, add notes, and users.
  2. Learn how to show a field only to admin users

You can control the visibility of a field on your form such that it is visible only to the admin users in that app. In other words, you can hide a field from all other users of your app.

This is achieved using the field property Show field to, which can be set with one of two values:

  • Everyone: All users can view the field on the form. This value is set by default.
  • Admin Only: Only the app's admin can view the field on the form.

Mandatory and Admin Only fields

You cannot set a field as Mandatory when its Show field to property is set as Admin Only, and vice versa. In other words, you cannot have a field that's mandatory on the form but is hidden from all except the admin users.
