Hi Himanshu,

As we use AWS (Amazon Web Service) there are a multitude of IPs so unfortunately white listing requests by IP addresses isn’t an option (Unfortunately!). :disappointed:

Hi @himanshuteotia,

you should check if third party apis has a different authorization method such as: token, OAuth, Basic Auth, etc.

Okay! I understood your point … I just need to know the ip which you are using in HTTPS actions

Hi @himanshuteotia

There isn’t a single IP that is used for these actions I’m afraid and because of the numbers of IP addresses that are used we wouldn’t be able to supply these for you. Sorry. :disappointed:

@himanshuteotia

nowadays it is not a good idea have webservices using IP whitelist to be used.
Webservice / api should use different authentication method.

You need to create your own api to call from FlowXO that call your third part api and it returns result to FlowXO. It must be hosted on a server with a public static IP, even if it’s not dedicated.
