Using 2.1.3, is there a way to hide an entire column from a UI component admin grid? I found Magento2 Add css class to admin ui grid column, and that hides the column, but not the column header (misaligning the grid columns).

  • From your response below it sounds like you're trying to show/hide an order grid column based on the currently logged in admin user. Did you ever find a solution for that?

use <item name="visible" xsi:type="boolean">false</item> in the config node of data argument when declaring column

eg.

<column name="created_at">
    <argument name="data" xsi:type="array">
        <item name="config" xsi:type="array">
            <item name="resizeEnabled" xsi:type="boolean">false</item>
            <item name="filter" xsi:type="string">dateRange</item>
            <item name="sorting" xsi:type="string">desc</item>
            <item name="label" xsi:type="string" translate="true">Created at</item>
            <item name="sortOrder" xsi:type="number">120</item>
            <item name="visible" xsi:type="boolean">false</item>
        </item>
    </argument>
</column>

the only issue that the filter won't showing until you switch the column back to visible

  • Thanks @Mammouth, but this looks like a config setting - I want to be able to change the visibility based on the users role, so it would have to check it in code.

  • acl wasn't created for this ... but for mimic something similar just extend/override Magento_Ui/view/base/web/js/grid/columns/column.js with your business logic

  • otehrwise I think would be good to open a new thread to your current problem (hiding column by user role settings), because this one already solved

You can try with <item name="componentDisabled" xsi:type="boolean">true</item>

For example:

Vendor/Module/view/adminhtml/ui_component/product_form.xml

<field name="backorders">
    <argument name="data" xsi:type="array">
            <item name="config" xsi:type="array">
                <item name="componentDisabled" xsi:type="boolean">true</item>
            </item>
    </argument>
</field>

  • Thanks @Khoa, but I want to display the column depending on the user's permissions, so I want the column there, but to start hidden.

Add below code in your ui xml to remove columns

<column name="name_of_column">
          <argument name="data" xsi:type="array">
               <item name="config" xsi:type="array">
               <item name="componentDisabled" xsi:type="boolean">true</item>
           </item>
      </argument>
</column>
<field name="name_of_column">
          <argument name="data" xsi:type="array">
               <item name="config" xsi:type="array">
               <item name="componentDisabled" xsi:type="boolean">true</item>
           </item>
      </argument>
</field>
