Alert filter unreal.crashtype not respected in alert rules

Steps to Reproduce

1.Create a new alert with filter: The event's "unreal.crashtype" value "does not equal" "Ensure" so events that have this crash type do not trigger the alert.
2. Send an event to the project with unreal.crashtype=Ensure.

Example alert on test org: https://dev-curumas.sentry.io/alerts/rules/notjava/4430873/details/

Expected Result

Evens that contain Unreal.crash_type=Ensure in its additional context do NOT trigger the alert.

Actual Result

The alert is triggered.

At the start I suspected it was due to Minidump processing: the Unreal context is only added after applying DIFs to the event, but from what I see in the code, any event with the context should work.

So I sent a test event with a matching context (screenshot) and it triggered the alert.

Unreal filter option was recently added here: getsentry/sentry#44021

In any case, this issue affects a paying customer, the specific information can be found in this internal ticket (not sharing due to possible PII). In the affected user's account there are unreal events with crash_type=Ensure that triggered the alert when the rule is set to trigger only when crash type is not equal to Ensure.

@bitsandfoxes would you mind looking into this, since you've implemented the feature? thanks

Started using Sentry's Unreal integration recently and I have been running into exact same issue. Support forwarded me link to this issue. Would love to see this resolved so that I can properly configure Sentry alerts to only be sent for crashes and asserts and not for ensures

[bitsandfoxes]

@suyashFSG Thanks for reaching out. Yes, we'll revisit this.

Is there a still a plan to address this? I just ran into this issue and it's preventing me from configuring the alert setup that I want. Would love to see this fixed so that I don't have to use a subpar workaround.

Thanks for bringing this back up. Sorry, I lost track of it and will update here accordingly.
