How to remove the default buffer fields/ columns

Buffers contain 2 default fields which are “_id” field and the “_dateUpdated” field.

If you don’t require these fields from your Buffer source step, you can delete the fields by adding a Calculator step after the Buffer source step. Type out the highlighted code in your Calculator step and click on Save to delete those fields as shown in the image below.
