    srinivaskiranp You can get it either trough API v1 or v2:

    v1 with something like

    <#assign hidden = restadmin("categories/id/<categoryid>/settings/name/config.hidden").value />

    v2 with something like:

    <#assign query = "SELECT hidden FROM categories WHERE id = '<categoryid>'"?url />
<#assign hidden = restadmin("2.0", "/search?q=${query}").data.items[0].hidden />

    note that you need to set off these requests with admin permissions...

        You can get it by going to Admin > community Structure and navigate to the category you want to get the property.

        Keep your mouse on top of that and you will see an option called edit properties.

        After clicking that you will see the options.
