Restricting metrics ingested through Telegraf plugin

Telegraf comes with the Dynatrace Output Plugin that enables you to easily send Telegraf metrics to Dynatrace:

Does someone know if it's possible to configure/restrict the metrics being sent to Dynatrace?

The GitHub page has some more details and it seems it is not possible through the [[outputs.dynatrace]] configuration section: https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/tree/master/plugins/outputs/dynatrace

Any ideas?

Looking further at the Telegraf configuration, it seems it can be done with "namepass".

Anyone managed to limit data ingestion by this or other way?
