# Hidden Content

> Control visibility by hiding dashboards and other content from tiles, explorer, and search results while maintaining direct access and navigation visibility.

## Hidden and Hidden from Search Toggles

You can now control where content appears throughout Curator using the **Hidden** and **Hidden from Search** toggles.
These toggles are available for most content types and allow fine-grained control over how users discover content.

### Availability

| Content Type | Hidden | Hidden from Search |
| - | :-: | :-: |
| File | Yes | Yes |
| Page | Yes | Yes |
| Menu | Yes | No *(not available)* |
| Keyword | Yes | Yes |
| Power BI Dashboard | Yes | Yes |
| Power BI Report | Yes | Yes |
| Tableau Dashboard | Yes | Yes |
| Tableau Metrics | Yes | Yes |
| Sigma Workbooks | Yes | Yes |
| ThoughtSpot Liveboard | Yes | Yes |
| ThoughtSpot Search | Yes | Yes |

### Behavior

#### Hidden

* Removes the item from **all content displays**, including tiles and Explorer tiles.
* Prevents the content from appearing in featured or related content sections.

#### Hidden from Search

* Excludes the item only from **Curator search results**.
* The content continues to appear in other locations, such as tiles, related content, and Explorer tiles.
* This setting is **not available for Menus**.

#### Keywords are a special case

For every other content type in the table above, these toggles hide **the item itself**. A keyword is not
content that users open, so for keywords the toggles instead control **the keyword as a route to content**.
The dashboards, pages, and files tagged with a hidden keyword stay visible, and stay findable by their own
titles and descriptions.

* **Hidden** — the keyword is removed from the Explorer keyword filters and from the keyword lists shown on
  tiles, and searching its name no longer returns the content tagged with it.
* **Hidden from Search** — searching the keyword's name no longer returns the content tagged with it, and the
  keyword is no longer shown as a matched keyword on a search result. It still appears in the Explorer
  keyword filters and on tiles.

A hidden keyword's own keyword page remains reachable by direct URL, in the same way other hidden content is.

### Where to Find the Hidden Settings

| Content Type | Navigation Path |
| - | - |
| **File** | Content → File → General |
| **Page** | Content → Page → Page Details |
| **Menu** | Content → Navigation → Menu |
| **Keyword** | Content → Keywords |
| **Power BI Dashboard** | Power BI → Dashboards → Discovery |
| **Power BI Report** | Power BI → Reports → Discovery |
| **Tableau Dashboard** | Tableau → Dashboards → Discovery |
| **Tableau Metrics** | Tableau → Metrics → Discovery |
| **Sigma Workbooks** | Sigma → Workbooks → Discovery |

### How to Update Visibility Settings

1. Edit the desired content item (for example, a Dashboard, Report, Page, or File).
2. Navigate to the section shown in the table above.
3. Locate the **Hidden** and **Hidden from Search** toggles.
4. Use the toggles:
   * **Hidden** — hides the item from content listings such as tiles, Explorer tiles, and search results. Navigation menu items linking to the item remain accessible.
   * **Hidden from Search** — hides the item only from search results.
5. Click **Save** to apply your changes.

### Bulk Visibility Changes

For every content type except Pages, **Hidden** and **Hidden from Search** are set **per item** on that item's
own edit form. The Discovery lists do offer bulk actions on checked items — for example **Replace Dashboard
URLs** and **Create Menu Items** on Tableau → Dashboards → Discovery — but none of them change visibility.
To hide or unhide several dashboards, reports, files, menus, keywords, metrics, workbooks, or liveboards, open
and save each item individually.

#### Pages are the exception

Pages support a bulk visibility change through the **Edit Pages** action:

1. Go to **Content → Pages**.
2. Select the pages you want to change using the checkboxes in the list.
3. Click **Edit Pages** to open the bulk edit window.
4. Set the **Hidden** toggle to the value you want applied to every selected page.
5. Click **Apply Changes**.

> [!WARNING]
>
> The **Edit Pages** window applies **all** of its toggles — **Hidden**, **Favoritable**, **Blog**,
> **User Commenting**, and **Featured** — to every selected page, using whatever position each switch is in
> when you click **Apply Changes**. Toggles you did not intend to change are still written to the selected
> pages and will overwrite their existing values. Review every switch in the window before applying.

**Hidden from Search** is not included in the **Edit Pages** window. To change it, edit each page individually.

### Notes

* Hidden items are still accessible through direct URLs for users with the correct permissions.
