Data filter configuration

A data filter is an optional NEQL predicate used to identify data sources in the sub-tree of the node specified in the request. When a node meets the predicate, its sub-tree no longer searches for additional values.

When Use Request Data Filter on a DataSourceBlock is false and the Data Filter property is configured, the block uses the value of the Data Filter property as defined in the DataSourceBlock.

When Use Request Data Filter is true, the block uses the value of the Data Filter property as defined in the request.

If Data Filter is not defined, the DataSourceBlock filters no data.
