Note that since this is accomplished by hiding, and not by permissions, it may still be possible for a determined individual to discover its existence.
You could even add an item to a 'Quick Links' list web part on a page, with a hyperlink to the hidden view, and break permission inheritance on that single list item, so that only your team can see the link. If you are concerned that someone may have already created a browser bookmark to this view before you hid it, you can always change the URL of that view in List Settings after you hide it, and then share this new URL with your team. Those views will no longer show up in the view selector dropdown, but navigating to the URL of the view, whether by typing it manually, clicking an existing link in a page or document, or via a browser bookmark, will still work.
You can't hide a view from some users and not others, but there is a way to hide a view from everyone, and then you can let your team know that, though hidden, the view still exists.įrom the list settings page, choose 'Per-location view settings', then select the views you want to hide and click 'Remove'.
