How do I hide or show a view in the inbox sidebar?

Updated October 19, 2026

Hide the views you don't use, such as Spam or a channel you rarely check, to keep your sidebar short. You can bring them back at any time.

Step by step

To hide a view:

To show it again:

Click Manage hidden views, the … button next to the Views title at the top of the sidebar.
The Hidden Views dialog lists every view you've hidden. Built-in views are tagged (System).
Click Show next to the view. It's back in your sidebar.

Hiding only changes your own sidebar. Your teammates still see the view, and no conversation is moved or deleted.
You can hide any view, built-in ones included, such as Inbox, Done or LinkedIn.
When nothing is hidden, the dialog says No hidden views.
If you hide the view you're on, the Inbox switches to your default view, or to Inbox.
To remove a view for good instead, delete it: see How to save an inbox view. Built-in views can't be deleted.
