I want to be able to hide the primary field when I am sharing specific views. Specifically I would love to do this in the gallery view but ideally in all views.

Totally agree, I desperately need this fix as I am trying to show my availble vehciles for my hire car company online and need to hide the registration number off the website.

Please make this change asap.

Is changing the key field with a Synced table even possible?

This article says so (see "Primary field customization"): https://support.airtable.com/docs/getting-started-with-airtable-sync. I can't get it to work...

The mandatory key field is the last bastion of confounding anti-UX in Airtable. It is an all-around amazing product but this is a heinous limitation.

I make big use of the primary field, but I still can't find the reason why I'm kept from hiding it on certain views if I wanted to...

It may be because the Airtable team completely neglects their mobile app and has no plans to improve it 😕

For those still looking for a fix: it's been possible for a while now to create an interface that doesn't show the primary field and then share/embed that page.
