How matching works
The proxy only forwards to hosts that are registered and enabled on your allowlist. Matching is exact on the hostname:- Case-insensitive:
API.Stripe.comandapi.stripe.comare the same host. - No wildcards:
api.example.comdoes not authorizesandbox.example.com. - Subdomains are registered separately.
DISABLED, is rejected with
403 DESTINATION_NOT_ALLOWED before any card data is read.
Register a destination
201 with the created entry, which starts in the ENABLED state. A hostname that is
already registered returns 409 DESTINATION_EXISTS; a value that is not a bare public hostname
(a URL, a host with a port or path, an IP address, or a wildcard) returns 422 INVALID_HOSTNAME;
an account_id that is not a valid account for your organization returns 400 INVALID_ACCOUNT_ID.
account_id is optional. Left null (the default), the destination is allowed for every
account in your organization. Set it to a specific account id to scope the destination to
that account only — the host is then usable solely on proxy requests made under that account.
The destination object returns id, hostname, purpose, account_id, status
(ENABLED / DISABLED), created_at, and updated_at. When you call via the API the actor
is your API key, so the object does not carry a user email.
List your destinations
{"destinations": [ ... ]} — only the destinations registered for your account.
Remove a destination
204. Removing a destination takes effect immediately — the next proxy request to
that host is rejected.
Enable or disable a destination
Instead of removing a host, you can disable it — the record (and its audit history) is kept, but the forward path stops using it. Re-enable it to turn it back on. This is useful for temporarily suspending a destination without losing its configuration.200 with the updated destination object (its status set to DISABLED or
ENABLED). Only ENABLED destinations are used by the forward path; a request to a DISABLED
host returns 403 DESTINATION_NOT_ALLOWED.
A destination moves through three states:
Audit trail
Every allowlist change — add, remove, enable, and disable — is written to an append-only audit log recording who made the change, when, and which hostname. The audit record persists even after a destination is removed, so a deletion is never invisible: you can always see who removed a host and when. There is no way to alter or erase these audit records through the API.Treat new-destination and deletion alerts seriouslyAdding or removing a destination is a sensitive action: it changes where your cards can be sent.
Yuno recommends restricting who can manage the allowlist, enabling notifications on allowlist
changes, and reviewing any unexpected additions or deletions — they are the tripwire for a
compromised dashboard account.
