Hide the +Add Column from SharePoint Library view

Does anyone know if there's a way to completely hide the +Add Column button from a Library view?

My users have Contribute access (cannot go any lower as they need to work with the library, adding and editing) and I can see if takes away their ability to create new columns - which is great.

However, to avoid confusion (and them changing the view and then losing it when navigating away) I really want to just take it away altogether.  Is there a way to do this?  With JSON on view formatting perhaps?

  • I believe it can be done with the SPFx framework, but out-of-the-box it's not possible to hide it.
