Hiding Blocks

Hidden blocks will skip commit validation, and their content won’t return from the API. Hidding a block will also hide all its children.

Sometimes, you build blocks which are not meant to be consumed via the API. You may do that for a couple reasons:

  1. A Component that’s meant as a “template”, but not meant to be used itself. E.g, “Button“.

  2. A collection row (an Instance Block) which is still WIP and you don’t want to publish yet. E.g, a blog post you’re working on.

In these cases, you should “Hide” those blocks. Hidden blocks will skip commit validation, and their content won’t return from the API. Hidding a block will also hide all its children.
