Some APIs require you to add specific IP addresses to an allowlist before accepting connections. Data Fetcher’s Fixed IP Address option ensures your requests always come from the same IP address, making it easy to meet this security requirement.
This feature requires a paid Data Fetcher plan.

​
How to enable a fixed IP address

  1. Navigate to the request screen in Data Fetcher.
  2. Open Advanced settings.
  3. Scroll down and toggle on Use fixed IP address.
  4. Once enabled, your requests will run from the following IP address:
54.173.229.200
When configuring your API service, add this IP address to its allowlist so it can accept requests from Data Fetcher.

​
When to use a fixed IP address

Enable this option when the API you’re connecting to requires incoming requests to come from a known or allowlisted IP address. This is common with internal APIs, private services, or systems with strict firewall rules. If the API does not require IP allowlisting, you can leave this setting turned off.
