How do I find out what IPs to give, my IP doesnt stay the same? The local IP is hardly the one they want, it wouldnt make sense I think.

First of all they’re fucking doing it wrong. Manual IP whitelisting instead of API auth is appallingly dated
why would one do either? By whitelisting you entirely prevent traffic. API auth takes processing. How wrong is it? Maybe for your home usage it’s good enough but layering measures has value…
It means you’re doing boutique instead of scalable, and/or they don’t know how to deal with the traffic and auth infrastructure
scalable has cost and you only want to engage costs when it comes with benefits. Preventing non legitimate traffic is complementary to scalability. Just don’t pay for illegitimate traffic…
