Hi, I would like to know if anyone know of an configuration option to not show tha clinical data tab as a table at all. Or where in the code I can disable that?  i want to show the graphs but not allow to copy or download any data.

Please no answers like why do you want to do it. I'm not here for a philosophical discussion about the whys of this. I just want to know how to do it.

Thanks

Hi,

There is not currently a way to do this easily … but it has been requested before and we are thinking about ways to implement this.

Niki.

Juan, 
This being an open source project, you would be welcome to work on adding this functionality if it's important to you.  Happy to advise.

Just to add that while it's not possible to high the clinical data tab, there is a feature to disable download from the tab and other places. By set skin.hide_download_controls=true

yes this setting is not enough,  you can still browse the clinical data and copy it manually. 

However what worked is setting the clinical_attribute_product_limit to something like 1 .

the tab is still there but the data is not visible.

Hi Juan,

I've created a ticket on this: https://github.com/cBioPortal/cbioportal/issues/11653. It'll take some time before we get to it. Please feel free to work on it if you know how to do it.

Thanks,
-JJ
