Hi
There is a group that I have of tasks yet to be scheduled on a board. Is it possible to have this group hidden from view so that only selected people can see it?
Many Thanks

Hi @nickmaxwell,
Right now, we don’t have the ability to hide groups from view, just columns using the advanced permissions.
If you don’t want to schedule them right now and don’t want them to be viewed yet by others, why not create a private backlog board (or main board) from which you can then move the tasks to your execution board when you’re ready for them to be worked on? That’s how we work here 
Thanks Julia - That sounds like a workable solution!

Hi,
We would really love to be able to hide groups as well. The solution offered is fine if it is only one board, but we work with all our onboarding clients with taskboards and they get a bit daunting when they start. So it would be great if we can hide a group with tasks that are not due yet and add them to the list as we go, to keep the to-do list for our clients short & sweet.
would be great to have an automation for it too! ie if a status changes to done, dependency is moved to visible group or something nifty like that.
Thanks!

I would really like to have this feature as well. Hiding a group on a specific board would allow for sharing a board and the client only seeing the tasks that they have without having a ton of completely separate boards. So essentially this would be group permissions you could also do this at the task level allowing for more customization and a better workflow @Julia-monday.com
Have you tried filtering the board to show just the groups you want to show to the client and then sharing the view via a shareable link with only the groups you’ve selected in the filter showing?

This method does not work for us as we do not want to utilize the link option which gives tech-savvy users the ability to see everything. All of our workers are tech-savvy.
I would particularly like this for the Kanban board. If I’m doing views for several teams when I filter the items out of the groups, the groups still show up blank. It makes it messy for software development in an agile environment.
Hi there, any update on this topic. We also would need the function to hide groups or tasks within a shared board.

Hey @Julian and all, our developers are currently working on adding item level permissions, so that only certain people can view certain items. We are hoping to have this released by the end of the year 
In terms of group level permissions, I would recommend adding this as a feature request here!: Submit an Idea - monday Community Forum
Feel free to let me know if you have any questions!

thanks a lot for the update. really looking forward to use this feature!
Hi @TRB-monday.com , are there any updates on this?
Hi, @ela - Yes! Item Permissions are available now on a limited by-approval basis for Enterprise plans only. I would be happy to provide a demo to you and chat with you about the feature if you are interested in learning more. You can book a time here: Book a call with Polished Geek: Do more with monday․com
I will like to see a short video on how this works. Can you upload this please?
Beside this, i would be happy to access this feature from our pro plan too

@PolishedGeek looks good… i hope Monday reconsider to release this function to pro accounts too. Do you know if there is something undergoing on the title of this thread? “Group Hiding”?
Hi Monday.com (@Julia-monday.com @PolishedGeek @TRB-monday.com)
This feature is what we are looking for in order to setup our workflows to share our maintenance plan with our customers in 1 only board, with eficience (all in one board) and not having our customers, employees, collaborators to access to multiple boards.
IMO, this feature would be avaliable for most of all plans, because its a complementation of the item permission setup that exists in all accounts.
We are a low-medium company and we are ok with pro plan, so for 1 simple feature like that i cannot ask for the owners to pay a Enterprise plan.
Please i need this to be reviewed. And i think im not alone with this request…
There are many threads like this along this community posts.

Not that I’m aware of @hlopezvc but I’ll keep my ears open and report back if I do!
