Security
Whitelisting refers to the practice of explicitly allowing access only from a predefined list of trusted entities. These entities can be IP addresses, domains, or even specific API keys.
Whitelisting presents the following benefits:
By limiting access to only trusted sources, you significantly reduce the potential attack surface and the risk of unauthorized access.
Whitelisting can help prevent malicious use of your API credentials from unknown or compromised systems.
It adds an extra layer of security beyond basic authentication (like API keys). Even if an API key is compromised, requests originating from non-whitelisted sources will be blocked.
Be aware of the following impacts of whitelisting:
When an IP address is whitelisted, only traffic originating from that specific IP address (or the specified IP addresses) will be allowed to access the requested interface(s). All other IP addresses will be denied access.
Once the IP address(es) have been successfully added to the whitelist, the changes will take effect immediately.
You can self-manage IP whitelisting for accessing DT One services directly within the DT Shop interface.
-
Navigate to DEVELOPERS.
-
Select the relevant environment (PRODUCTION or PRE-PRODUCTION).
-
Go to the Whitelist IP Address section.
-
Enter the IP address(es) you wish to whitelist in the "Allowed IP Address" field. You can enter multiple IP addresses separated by commas.
If your systems require whitelisting of incoming connections from DT One, you may need to whitelist the following IP address:- 52.77.60.112 (Applicable for both Pre-Production and Production environments).

Click SUBMIT to save your changes.
- Not Enabled by Default: IP whitelisting for accessing DT One is not enabled by default. You need to explicitly add IP addresses in the DT Shop interface to enable it.
- Exclusive API Access: When IP whitelisting is enabled for accessing DT One, only API requests originating from the IP addresses you have added will be allowed.
