# Hide facet values

> Hide specific facet values from shoppers on the storefront while keeping them visible in the Layers dashboard for internal merchandising and reporting.

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

1. Open the attribute and go to the **Faceting** tab.
2. Locate the facet value you want to hide in the table.
3. Click the three-dot menu next to the value.
4. Select **Hide value** from the dropdown.
5. The **Visibility** column will update to show "Hidden" with an eye-off icon.
6. Save the attribute.

## Hiding multiple values

You can hide multiple facet values at once:

1. Select the checkboxes next to the values you want to hide.
2. Click the **Hide selected** button that appears in the toolbar.
3. Save the attribute.

## Showing hidden values

To make a hidden value visible again:

1. Find the value with "Hidden" status in the **Visibility** column.
2. Click the three-dot menu next to the value.
3. Select **Show value** from the dropdown.
4. Save the attribute.

You can also use **Show selected** to reveal multiple hidden values at once.

## 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.
