Configure hide fields action | Zoho Creator Help

Configure hide fields action

To configure a hide field action:
  1. While creating a new workflow choose the Field rules option in the When to trigger workflow dropdown.

  2. Click the Add New Action block. The Add New Action window will slide in from the right.

  3. Zoho Creator executes the action whenever there is an activity on the form. You can run the action for selected records by setting the criteria. Refer to the Set criteria page to learn more about setting criteria in a workflow.

  4. Choose the Hide Fields task.

  5. The Select Fields drop-down lists all the fields in your form. Select the fields that you want to hide.

  6. Click Save.
  7. Click Done in the top-right corner of the screen.


Note: Please note that when using hide task to hide sensitive fields, the task manages the visibility of the field only in the user interface. The data of that field is still not protected and can be exposed using developer tools.
