    Hi Stacie Alvaro,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Yes, it is possible to hide the empty columns on the submission table. But, you will have to do it manually. Let me show you how:

    1. On the Jotform Tables page, click on the Columns button on the top right side.
    2. Uncheck the column you wish to hide and that's it. How to hide the empty columns on the submisison table? Image 1 Screenshot 30

    There are tons of them. Is there a way to automatically hide unfilled columns? https://form.jotform.com/241498312562155

    Hi Stacie,

    Unfortunately, it is not possible to automatically hide columns from a table, as they represent the fields that need to be filled out by users. That way, the column can represent what the data is entered in the field, or if there is none.

    You can either follow the steps my colleague provided, or you can also manage the table's columns through the Manage Column settings. Let me show you how:

    1. In Tables, click on the vertical ellipsis beside the form's title or name.
    2. Select Manage columns from the dropdown.
    3. From the Show/Hide Columns modal, uncheck the fields you don't want to show on the table.
    4. Click on Update once done. How to hide the empty columns on the submisison table? Image 1 Screenshot 20

    Give it a try and let us know if you have any other questions.
