# Pin columns

Pinning a column allows you to keep specific columns visible on the left side of a table, even while scrolling the table horizontally.&#x20;

When there are too many columns in the table and you want to freeze a few important ones, you can pin them. When you pin a column, it moves to the left, ensuring that key columns, like IDs or descriptions, remain visible while other columns scroll.&#x20;

* Hover over the column header you want to pin, then click the three-dot menu and select **Pin** to pin it to the left. We will pin the 'Product Name' column here.

The column is now pinned.

* To unpin a column, choose **Unpin** from the same menu on the header.

* To unpin all of them, select **Unpin All.** All columns get unpinned, returning to their original positions.
