Hiding and showing fields

With Data Manager you can hide fields that are available in your dataset but not used in your process app. A field that is set to hidden in Data Manager, will not be visible in selectors when editing dashboards using the dashboard editor. This is useful when you do not want to use these fields in a visualization, but do want to use them to compute metrics.
