I have a node application deployed on the new APPS platform. I need the ip address so I can whitelist it to limit access. Thank you.

Hi there,
Quick update here, you can now add dedicated egress IP addresses to your apps on App Platform. Dedicated egress IP addresses allow your app to connect to resources outside of DigitalOcean using a publicly available static IP address.
Dedicated egress IP addresses are a paid feature that allows your app to connect to resources outside of DigitalOcean using a static IP address and allow you to restrict external resources to receive only outgoing traffic from your app. Dedicated egress IP addresses persist through redeployments but are removed from the app if you disable the feature or the app is destroyed.
You can add a dedicated egress IPs to your app after you deploy the app. To do so, in the DigitalOcean Control Panel, go to the Apps page and click your app. Click the Settings tab, scroll to the Dedicated Egress IP Addresses section, and then click the Edit button beside the section.
In the Edit menu, click the Add Dedicated Egress IP button. This assigns two IP addresses to your app and triggers a redeployment.
To remove a dedicated egress IP address, in the same Edit menu, click Release Dedicated Egress IPs. This removes the IP addresses from the app and triggers a redeployment. Once IP addresses have been released, the same addresses cannot be re-added to the app.
Hope that this helps!
Best,
Bobby
Hello @hou1nxb ,
Unfortunately, we don’t support static or permanent IP addresses in your App Platform at this time. In the App Platform, the public interface won’t work as expected due to the dynamic nature of the App Platform and the unpredictable IP addresses your app instances will be assigned in the backend.
I encourage you to share your thoughts about this on our ideas page: https://ideas.digitalocean.com/ ;
Cheers, Sri Charan
