Question

Use Cloud Firewall with App Platform

Is it possible to use Cloud Firewall with an app deployed on App Platform? I was reviewing options to deploy an internal app that is restricted to a list of allowed IPs.

It doesn’t seem to be an option from what I could tell, but was wondering if I am missing something? If it’s not an option is this something that would be a candidate for a future feature?

This functionality isn’t currently available, but we are exploring options for offering dedicated egress IPs which would facilitate cloud firewall functionality.

Hi, Any news about this topic ?

It would be very convenient to restrict apps access for micro services usage, without necessiting custom authentication mechanism
