You can filter which events are received and sent at the data pipeline level by blocking events from being received by the pipeline, or by blocking certain events from being sent to individual data destinations.

Data Pipeline Filter

To block an event type for the entire data pipeline, go to the pipeline page and click on the pipeline filter component.
In the modal, you can either select from a predefined standard event or type in a custom event.
