IP Whitelisting

To enhance the security of your API and protect against unauthorized access, you can whitelist the IP addresses of the servers running your services. This ensures that only requests from these IP addresses are allowed, adding an extra layer of protection.

How to Whitelist IP Addresses

1. Visit the Dashboard Settings:

   • Log in to your Brails Dashboard (opens in a new tab).

2. Add an IP Address:

   • Click on the "Add IP Address" button.
   • Enter the IP address you want to whitelist. This action will restrict access to only the whitelisted IPs and block requests from other IP addresses, including your own if not whitelisted.

3. Confirm with 2FA:

   • To complete the process, you will need to enter your two-factor authentication (2FA) code to confirm the addition.

4. View Whitelisted IPs:

   • Once added, you can view all your whitelisted IP addresses in the dashboard.

Microservices and Multiple APIs:

• If you are working with multiple servers, microservices, or mobile apps, ensure you add the IP addresses for each server to your whitelist.
