I have a view set up, and I would prefer not to display the primary field in it. I wanted to inquire if there is any way to hide this field within the view. Alternatively, if there are any other methods or workarounds to achieve the same outcome.

Hi there! Primary fields cannot be hidden as they are intended to hold unique representations for each record (e.g., linked records carry primary field names). As primary fields cannot be deleted, it might be more efficient to swap out the primary field data in some way, such as using it as a concatenated formula field or to hold autonumbers.
