Introduction

Using 'showIf' and 'showInOverviewIf' conditions, you can hide specific fields either from all specimens pages or from parent/child pages. You can also hide or show fields based on some other field's value.

...

Both the fields will be displayed for the child specimens (lineage: derived/aliquot).

Example 2: Display specimen type field only on child pages and not on primary specimen page.

{
"name": "specimen.type",
"caption": "Specimen Type",
"showInOverviewIf": "specimen.lineage != 'New'",
"type": "specimen-type",
"specimen": "specimen",
"optional": true
}
