# Whitelist MessageBird's IP addresses

If you are looking to whitelist MessageBird's IP addresses to connect your application to MessageBird's REST API because of your application's requirement, it will not be possible to whitelist the IP range for our REST API since our IP addresses are dynamic. Our REST API platform is offered from a globally distributed infrastructure. Hence you will not be able to whitelist the IP addresses of our platform.

However, we do offer the possibility of using a signing key to verify HTTP requests. You can create a signing key via the [Developers window](https://dashboard.messagebird.com/en/developers/settings) → *API settings*.

You can find more information on how to implement it into your API setup by checking our [Verify HTTP request](https://developers.messagebird.com/docs/verify-http-requests) Documentation.

If you have any issues with this, please [reach out to our Support team](https://www.messagebird.com/contact) for further help!
