Hi @JasonStoltz , I want to hide some fields in my searchs, and as this page suggest: [GitHub - elastic/app-search-reference-ui-react: A generic UI for use with any App Search Engine](https://github.com/elastic/app-search-reference-ui-react#updating-configuration) I erase some fields in my engine.json file. And worked fine. But I still seeing the ID in the results. Do I have to do another modification to hide the ID fields from the results?

thanks

Yeah, the "id" field is always returned. I think the only way to deal with this right now is creating a custom "Results" view. This post describes that a bit more in depth: [Reference UI - how to modify what's displayed (React newbie)](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/reference-ui-how-to-modify-whats-displayed-react-newbie/199471/2).
