Is there a way to block IP ranges on App Platform?

Posted on September 7, 2021

I would like to block access to my site on App Platform, preferably by Country. Is this possible or do I need to add code to my application to get data from ipstack/maxmind api and do the blocking myself at the app level?

It is not possible to do this via App Platform and would require the blocking to occur within your app with data like ipstack/maxmind.

I’m not sure we’ve considered this feature, you could recommend it on your feature ideas site: https://ideas.digitalocean.com/

Hope this helps!
