Clears the IP whitelist for a target client, resetting it to the default value that allows all IP addresses. Only the owner client may make this API call. The default whitelist is ["0.0.0.0/0"] (all IP addresses are allowed).
This endpoint includes the following methods:
- POST
POST
Authentication
This endpoint supports Basic authentication. To create an authentication string, combine your API client ID, a colon (:), and your client secret into a single value. For example, if your client ID is abcdefg and your client secret is hijklmnop, that value would look like this:
abcdefg:hijklmnop
Next, take the string and base64 encode it.
For example, on a Mac, you can base encode the string using this command:
echo -n "abcdefg:hijklmnop" | base64
If you’re running Microsoft Windows, you can encode the string by using a Windows PowerShell command similar to this:
[Convert]::ToBase64String([Sys
The resulting value (e.g., YWJjZGVmZzpoaWprbG1ub3A=) should be used in your authentication header.
If you are making API calls using Postman, select Basic Auth as your identification type, then use the client ID as the username and the client secret as the password.
Make sure that your API client has the all the permissions (for example, the right to read user profile information) needed to complete the API call.

- Click the Copy to Clipboard button located directly beneath the code sample
- In Postman, click Import to display the Import dialog box.
- In the Import dialog box, click Paste Raw Text, and then paste in the copied code. The Import dialog box should look similar to this:
