Can we determine which dependency is associated with which request telemetry in the code in appication Insights

I have a requirement to suppress all the auto generated dependency telemetries that is getting generated for the health check api request. Is there a way to identify in code which dependency telemetry is generated from which request telemetry and then in a Telemetry processor remove them

If you know the operation name of the health check api request, then it's possible. For how to get the operation name of the api request, you can set a checkpoint in your Telemetry processor class.

For example, the operation name is "Get api/check", then you can write the following code in your custom Telemetry processor class:

    //your other code

    public void Process(ITelemetry item)
    {
        if (!ProcessItem(item)) { return; }
        this.Next.Process(item);
    }

    private bool ProcessItem(ITelemetry item)
    {            
        if (item is DependencyTelemetry dependencyTelemetry)
        {
            var op_name = dependencyTelemetry.Context.Operation.Name;

            if (op_name == "Get api/check")//please remember replace it to the real operation name.
            {
                return false;
            }
        }

        return true;

    }
