Filter your visits

Ignore your own traffic and filter events by path, host, IP, or country before they count.

Drop pageviews and custom events before they count toward quotas or appear in the dashboard. This is separate from bot filtering—bots are handled first; visit filters are rules you set per site. Open Bots in the site sidebar to review automated traffic Kobbe already filtered out.

Open Settings → Exclusions for the site, or use command search for Exclusions. For volume tips, see Reduce usage.

Changes apply to new visits within about a minute. Past data cannot be retroactively filtered.

Ignore your browser

For your own machine only, open the site in the browser, then the devtools console and run:

localStorage.kobbe_ignore = "true";

To send events again from that browser:

delete localStorage.kobbe_ignore;

The tracker checks this flag before any network request. It does not use cookies.

Add your current IP

In Settings → Exclusions, use Add my current IP to exclude traffic from the network you are on right now. This is helpful when you browse your own site during development or QA.

The address is compared only when the event is collected and is not stored as part of the event row.

Path rules

Rule Matches
Exact path e.g. /admin matches only that path.
Prefix with /* e.g. /admin/* matches /admin/users but not /admin itself.

Paths are matched against the same normalized path Kobbe stores for events: pathname only by default, or pathname + hash when the tracker uses data-track-hash. Query strings are never part of the path.

Hostname rules

Hostnames are compared in lowercase. You can enter example.com without https://; Kobbe normalizes full URLs to their hostname if you paste one. example.com and www.example.com match each other automatically, so you do not need to add both.

Use hostname rules when you use first-party collect or a custom collect endpoint: the tracker sends the page hostname on the visitor’s site so filters still work.

Country rules

Use a two-letter ISO-3166 code (e.g. us, de). Kobbe uses the request’s country hint from the edge (same source as dashboard maps). Unknown or missing country will not match a country rule.

IP rules

Enter the client IPv4 or IPv6 you want to exclude. The address is compared only when the event is collected; it is not stored as part of the event row. If the edge cannot resolve a client IP, an IP rule will not match.
