Currently, we can only pin the final values that we “log”. How to pin a certain config / parameter for each run, so that its easier to compare the runs or understand what that run is.

You can pin configs that you’ve tracked with `wandb.config`.  
You can see an example of this in [this wandb\_example workspace](https://wandb.ai/_scott/wandb_example?workspace=user-) where I’ve pinned `lr`.

Here’s the docs describing how to do that:

> **[Runs Table | Weights & Biases Documentation](https://docs.wandb.ai/guides/app/features/runs-table)**
>
> How to use the sidebar and table on the project page

> On the project page, we show runs in a sidebar. To show more columns:
> 
> 1. Click the button in the upper right corner of the sidebar to expand the table.
> 2. On a column header, click the dropdown menu to pin a column.
> 3. Pinned columns will be available in the sidebar when you collapse the table.

If you don’t see your column in that table, you may need to click “Columns” above the table on the right, which should show a dialog in which you can show / hide columns.
