Getting Data In

Discard metrics

Hello to everyone,

i'm trying to figure out how to discard metrics before they are indexed. Unfortunately the source of the data cannot be configured to choose the right metrics, so We receive tons of unwanted metrics every 10 seconds.
For the events it is possible via props.conf and transforms.conf but I'm not able to find a way for the metrics.
I also checked the metric rollup policy however seems that acts on the indexed data (if I understood).
Anyone has faced this issue before ?

 

thanks,

G.
