For this reason, you can filter IPS inside an application: just go to the application settings and you can add a list of IPs. Metrical won't save visits from these IPs. If you want, you can also use a wildcard to filter IPs. Example: if you put only '1.2.' instead of a complete IP, Metrical will filter out all IPs that starts with that address (1.2.3.4, 1.2.122.23, 1.2.1.9, ecc) This comparison between the visitor IP and the list of IPs inside your application is done as the first thing during a visit, so **no data** will be saved of that visit if the IP matches. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.metrical.xyz/general/filter-ips.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
