Depends on what do you mean by "filter events by custom properties". If you mean filter by a custom "key" inside the event like:

{
  "text" : "my custom event",
  "type" : "event type",
  "id" : "c8yId",
  "time" : "time",
  "custom_key" : "specific value"
}

You can use the Cumulocity API using the "fragmentType" in the request. You can do this by sending the "custom_key" as a filter like so: 

GET /event/events?fragmentType="custom_key" HTTP/1.1
Host: tenant.cumulocity.com
Authorization: Basic .....

That will return all event with that specific key.

In the other hand, if you want to filter by a custom "key" with a "specific value", you can do this by creating a simple microservice that does that for you. In the microservice you send the same request (above), then filter the result by comparing the value of "custom_key" with the value you want to filter and then send the events matched as a result.

Hope this help!
