I’m aware that there is ongoing work to enable context sensitive build plugins as part of [Allow context sensitive build plugins config in netlify.toml · Issue #1169 · netlify/build · GitHub](https://github.com/netlify/build/issues/1169) but I was wondering if there was any way to control the running of build plugins based on conditions other than context? For example, an incoming webhook from a headless CMS will trigger a static site rebuild. For these occasions we might not want to run a particular plugin. Is there any way to use the build hook metadata to ignore certain hooks when running build plugins? TIA ---

Hi @andypattenden, We haven’t had this request nor have we thought of this specific feature. Would you like to open a feature request in [Issues · netlify/build · GitHub](https://github.com/netlify/build/issues) describing the different conditional values (e.g. hook payload) that you’d like, and explaining your use case? This will allow us to discuss this feature and prioritize it. Thanks!
