Black lists

View and manage black lists to block specific IPs from accessing API endpoints, helping to quickly restrict unwanted traffic at the application level

On this page, you can view a list of existing black lists and create new ones.

Black lists block specific IP addresses from accessing certain API endpoints. This feature helps quickly block unwanted traffic or potential attackers at the application level.

Blacklisting is an emergency measure and is not as reliable as blocking attackers at the server level. Contact your system administrators.

Examples

• Block access to all API endpoints under a certain path

To block access to all endpoints under /api for a given IP address, specify /api/* in the Route field.

• Block access only to specific API endpoints under a certain path

To block access to specific endpoints under a path while allowing access to others, specify the more detailed path in the Route field.

For example, by specifying /api/v2/accounts/*, you can block access to the endpoints, such as /api/v2/accounts/:accountId and /api/v2/accounts/:accountId/balance, but still allow access to /api/v2/accounts for a given IP address.
