Hidden Rows show in Email notifications

I noticed in a new sheet format we use, which includes hidden columns calculating billing and pay rates, that the "hidden columns" actually show in totality when the user send emails from the sheet or receives their sheet notifications in their email. This is an issue since I do not wish to share that information with our users. Is there a way around this ?

Hi Tiffany,

Would Update requests work better for you? With the update requests you can specify which columns you want to be displayed.

Also, if you are the owner of the sheet, you can adjust the user's notifications so that it does not include the hidden columns.

The update to the notification triggers also came with a sadly underpublicized ability to also customize WHAT goes into the notifications. Now you can tailor the notification content to some extent. Check out the article and you'll see how to do it.
