Is there a way to enrich messages routed by the Azure Digital Twin service with additional properties of nodes?

We are sending telemetry messages to a digital twin node. Than we have setup routes to forward the telemetry messages to an eventhub. The dtid is always there in the message properties but we would like to attach more properties of the node to these messages routed on the evetnhub. Is there a way to attach/enrich messages with digital twin node properties or any other information for that matter?

It is of course always possible to read the node given the dtid on the receiver side but we would like to avoid this extra call through a configuration of message enrichment similar to IOTHUb has if possible.

    @Gökhan Kurt I have noticed a feedback request already here that is similar with your ask: https://feedback.azure.com/forums/916621-azure-digital-twins/suggestions/41929507-support-for-message-enrichments-on-twin-update-eve

    Please vote for it if it matches what you are trying to achieve.

    I have also found that the digital twins are stored by default as a flat hierarchy in Time Series Insights, but they can be enriched with model information and a multi-level hierarchy for organization: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/digital-twins/how-to-integrate-time-series-insights

    Let me know your feedback about the above. In the meantime I am connecting with Product Team to check any other alternatives like the one you suggested.

    Thanks!
