Block Request by IP
Block Request by IP is an important power-up to keep your data clean. You can define up to 30 IP addresses to block, so everything coming from those addresses is automatically excluded from your server GTM events and analytics. You can also block loading of all requests containing ‘.js?’ or ‘.html?’ or ’/gtag/js?id=’ from your sGTM container (for requests originating from the IP addresses you’ve defined in the block list).
This power-up is a great solution for eliminating internal traffic or suspicious sources from your analytics.
ℹ️ Requires Business plan or higher.
Benefits
- Cleaner analytics. Removes internal or irrelevant traffic, ensuring your stats reflect real customer behavior.
