Exclude table columns from filter

Goal

There are some columns in a table that I will never need to use in a filter. I want to hide them from the list of filter options

Details

You can see in the screenshot below that we have a Button type column with an Add action. I have it pinned to the left of the table, but I’ve also moved it to the bottom of the columns list, and yet it still shows up at the top of the filters list. Is there a way to re-order the filters list, or hide specific columns from the filters list?

I am using the built-in filter component of a regular table.

Hi @nrmlb thank you for this feedback! I have just requested this feature internally and will get back to you on this thread when this is live.

As a workaround, in the meantime, you could create a new query that only returns the columns you want to be showing in the filter - create a new table that returns this new query's data and hide that table.
You can then add a filter component and link this up to the new, hidden table.
You would then include the filters from this component in your original query (that returns the data in the unhidden table).

Also it would be great to have the ability to add hidden columns to the filter options
