Hiding sensitive code cells in a notebook

If your notebook includes code cells with sensitive data, such as credentials for data sources, you can hide those code cells from anyone you share your notebook with. Any collaborators in the same project can see the cells, but when you share a notebook with a link, those cells will be hidden from anyone who uses the link.

To hide code cells:

1. Open the notebook and select the code cell to hide.

2. Insert a comment with the hide tag on the first line of the code cell.

   For the Python and R languages, enter the following syntax: # @hidden_cell
