When you hide a facet value, your storefront API no longer returns it in facet results. The value remains visible in your dashboard for management, but shoppers won’t see it in filter menus.
Prerequisites
- The attribute must be configured as filterable
- You must have admin access to the dashboard
Steps
- Open the attribute and go to the Faceting tab.
- Locate the facet value you want to hide in the table.
- Click the three-dot menu next to the value.
- Select Hide value from the dropdown.
- The Visibility column will update to show “Hidden” with an eye-off icon.
- Save the attribute.
Hiding multiple values
You can hide multiple facet values at once:- Select the checkboxes next to the values you want to hide.
- Click the Hide selected button that appears in the toolbar.
- Save the attribute.
Showing hidden values
To make a hidden value visible again:- Find the value with “Hidden” status in the Visibility column.
- Click the three-dot menu next to the value.
- Select Show value from the dropdown.
- Save the attribute.
Tips
- Hidden values are case-sensitive. Hiding “Red” won’t hide “red” or “RED”.
- Both the browse and search APIs exclude hidden values from responses.
- Hidden values remain in your database and can be shown again at any time.
- Use this feature to temporarily remove seasonal values or test new filtering strategies.
