IP Whitelisting is an added security measure, which allows clients to specify which IPs they want to permit to make API requests of their data. Should another IP make a request, the request will not be successful.

To whitelist an IP, simply select Update on your active token and then either add the permissioned IP addresses to the list of valid IPs. You can add your current IP using the Add my IP option. Users are not limited to how many IPs they can whitelist. Alternatively, IPs can be added when the token is first created.

When finished, select Save. The list of a token's permitted IP addresses can be edited while the token remains active.

To whitelist an IP, select 'Update'
Either add your current IP, or enter an IP manually
