Feature Request: Add Filter per Connection

[Bu-Ble]

Hi, it would be nice to have a filter per backend connection to restrict which data is retrieved for example by host name, service name or custom variables. This could help to reduce data volume, implement access restrictions, avoid duplicate data from "overlapping" backends.

When using Thruk as Backends with API Keys this is already possible. For livestatus connections this could be implemented using the auth user header. Using filters is probably too complicated. You would have to configure a different filter/query for each table.

Thanks for the hint. I didn't find that in the docs. So I would have to setup an intermediate Thruk as "middleware" like this? Thruk UI <-> LMD <-> Thruk as Backend <-> LMD <-> Icinga2

yes, that would work.
