Blocking events as per event property value


Badge

Hello

Is it possible to block sending an event in amplitude when the condition of a custom event property value =x is met. For eg: block sending ‘application launch (event)’ when ‘app version( event property) =x’. In this case, ‘application launch' event should still get sent if ‘app version’ =’y’.

Thanks in advance

Hey @kavithajayaram
I don’t think that is supported yet. From what I have seen in Govern, we can only block the entire event in itself or the property name alone and not by a specific value for that property. We had submitted a feature request on these lines couple of years ago.
You can have a look at Drop Filters , but don’t think this will answer your intended use case fully.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Saish for your response. Good to know a feature request is in place. Hope Amplitude team can pick it up. You are right, Drop filters seem mainly for scenarios where incorrect data has been loaded, which is a different use case. Thanks

Hello, was just checking if this feature request got addressed/ is planned to get addressed soon. We are so waiting for this feature to be available

Adding my vote on this too… i’m surprised this isn’t available as filtering events for blocking based on property values is super important.

 

otherwise we can’t control which events to block that may be a noisy subset of a main event (with specific properties).
