I found in ESP8266WiFi.h
Set up a WPA2-secured access point
* param ssid: Pointer to the SSID string.
* param passphrase: Pointer to passphrase, 8 characters min.
* param channel: WiFi channel number, 1 - 13.
* param ssid_hidden: Network cloaking? 0 = broadcast SSID, 1 = hide SSID

Code: Select all    void softAP(const char* ssid, const char* passphrase, int channel = 1, int ssid_hidden = 0);


Start scan WiFi networks available
* return: Number of discovered networks

Code: Select allint8_t scanNetworks(bool async = false, bool show_hidden = false);

I hope this helps Sorry, I have little English.
I can answer your questions in well with Thai lang.

on GitHub ( https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino )
and then you can use this function to hide network ( hidden access point)

void softAP(const char* ssid, const char* passphrase, int channel = 1, int ssid_hidden = 0);
