  Cause:

  Check the CDS View Definition:
  
  Open the CDS view where the field is defined.
  Look for the @AnalyticsDetails.query.hidden annotation for the specific field that is causing the issue.
  If you want the field to be visible in your report or query, remove or comment out the @AnalyticsDetails.query.hidden annotation for that field.
  
  
  
  Modify the Query:
  
  If you are using a query that references this CDS view, ensure that you are not trying to include fields that are marked as hidden.

  Rebuild the Query:
  
  After making changes to the CDS view or query, you may need to activate and rebuild the query to ensure that the changes take effect.
