When QlikView script is being executed, the results of the actions are written to the
Script Execution Progress window (and, if enabled, the log file). While this is a very useful feature to see what happened during reload, sometimes you do not want certain things (for example, login credentials) to be visible to everyone. In fact, sometimes you do not even want all developers to have access to the entire script. This is where the hidden script comes into play.
The hidden script is a password protected part of the script. It is always the left-most tab (and cannot be moved), so it is executed before the regular script is reloaded. Anything that is executed within the hidden script is not written to the log.
