How to Disable Column Functionality Without Deleting Them

·
·

Hi Team! I’d like to disable the functionality of certain columns without deleting them. I’ve noticed that even when I turn off the Auto-update option in the Run Settings, it doesn’t fully guarantee that the column won’t run. Is there another way to completely disable a column’s functionality without having to remove it? I’d appreciate your guidance on this.

    You can use conditional run criteria to effectively disable column functionality without deleting the columns. Here's how: 1. Go to the column's Run Settings 2. In the "Conditional run" section, you can input a formula that determines when the column should run 3. To completely disable the column, you can set a condition that will always be false (for example, set the condition to "false" or "1 = 2")This way, the column will remain in your table but won't run under any circumstances, effectively disabling its functionality.Keep in mind that conditional runs are a credit-efficient way to control when enrichments run, as they ensure columns only update when specific criteria are met.
