Static IPs for ServiceNow Integrations

Restrict your ServiceNow instance by source IP and only allowlisted addresses can reach it, including your REST API integrations.

An integration on a cloud platform has a rotating egress IP, so ServiceNow rejects it even when the credentials are valid.

QuotaGuard gives you two fixed IPs you add to ServiceNow's IP Access Control once, so your integration keeps connecting no matter how its platform changes underneath.

Enterprise Connectivity & Allowlisting

ServiceNow lets administrators restrict access by source IP, through IP Address Access Control across the instance and through REST API Access Policies scoped to specific APIs.

Both apply to non-interactive REST integration accounts, not just human logins, so a server-side integration must come from an allowlisted IP.

An app on a cloud platform egresses from a rotating address, which the allowlist rejects. QuotaGuard gives that integration two static IPs that belong to your account, so you allowlist two addresses and never touch the list again.

Note: QuotaGuard is for connecting cloud integrations to IP-restricted enterprise resources like the ServiceNow REST API, partner APIs, SQL databases, and gateways. It is not for scraping consumer sites that block cloud infrastructure.

Native Configuration

QuotaGuard works at the application layer through environment variables.

No change to ServiceNow, no custom infrastructure. Point your ServiceNow REST API calls through the proxy and they exit from your two static IPs.

Environment Variable Setup

Store your QuotaGuard connection string as an environment variable on your integration's host.

Set the standard proxy variables so your HTTP client routes through it automatically, or attach the proxy to the specific calls that reach ServiceNow so nothing else is affected.

Clients in Python, Node.js, Go, and others respect the proxy variables without code changes.

Works With the Table API, OAuth, and Basic Auth

ServiceNow's REST Table API authenticates with OAuth 2.0 or Basic Auth.

The proxy carries the token request and the API calls alike, so every request that touches ServiceNow exits from your two static IPs. Nothing about the authentication flow changes.

Works on Any Integration Host

The setup is the same whether your integration runs on Heroku, AWS Lambda, a container platform, a serverless function, or your own server.

The proxy variables are read by your HTTP client, so there is nothing host-specific to configure and nothing that breaks when your platform changes its egress addresses.

FAQs

Technical Configuration and Setup for ServiceNow Integrations

Does ServiceNow let you restrict access by IP?

Yes.

Administrators can restrict instance access by source IP through IP Address Access Control, and restrict API access specifically through REST API Access Policies.

Both apply to REST integration accounts, so a server-side integration must connect from an allowlisted IP.

How do I give my integration a static IP for ServiceNow with QuotaGuard?

Route your ServiceNow REST API calls through QuotaGuard by setting the proxy connection string as an environment variable on your integration's host.

Then add your two QuotaGuard IPs to the instance's IP Access Control or the relevant REST API Access Policy.

Every request to ServiceNow then arrives from one of those two fixed addresses.

How do I verify my integration is using the static IP?

From the integration host, after configuring the proxy, make a request to <code>https://ip.quotaguard.com</code>.

The response returns the IP your request came from, which should match one of the two static IPs in your dashboard.

Check a few times and you will see both IPs in rotation.

Does this work for the Table API and OAuth?

Yes.

The proxy carries both the OAuth token request and the Table API calls, so every request that reaches ServiceNow exits from your two static IPs, with the authentication flow unchanged.

Will this keep working when my hosting platform changes its IPs?

Yes. The static IPs are assigned to your QuotaGuard account, not to your hosting platform.

Your integration reads the proxy URL from its environment and connects through the same two IPs regardless of how the platform rotates its egress addresses.

Is QuotaGuard appropriate for regulated data on ServiceNow?

Use QuotaGuard Shield for that.

Shield uses SSL passthrough and never decrypts your traffic at the proxy, which is the model for HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 workloads.

QuotaGuard Static tunnels outbound HTTPS without decrypting the payload and is appropriate for standard ITSM integration traffic, but not for regulated data.

We've been using QuotaGuard Static for nearly six years to provide static IP addresses to our clients so they are able to whitelist our network traffic.

The service has been hassle free, has never "not worked" or had any downtime to my knowledge. The only time we've reached out to support was during a migration from one cloud provider to another to ensure that we wouldn't cause interruptions in the service ourselves. The service we received at that time was prompt and professional.

The app's backend runs on serverless functions, and the railway data provider I was using only accepted requests from a fixed IP address. QuotaGuard gave me exactly that, and my passengers' PNR status checks kept working.

I used QuotaGuard Static IPs for ClearBerth, my train app for Indian Railways passengers. The app's backend runs on serverless functions, and the railway data provider I was using only accepted requests from a fixed IP address. QuotaGuard gave me exactly that, and my passengers' PNR status checks kept working.

It helped me because I could keep building the app without worrying about how to get a static IP. For a solo developer that is a real relief.

The best thing about QuotaGuard is the owner himself. Michael is kind, thoughtful and genuinely warm. When I wrote to say thank you, he replied personally, said it made his Sunday morning, and offered a returning customer discount for any future project. You do not often get that from a service company. I would happily use QuotaGuard again and I recommend it to any developer who needs a static IP.

QG helped us prove our pipeline and workflow with users and in the end, we would have stayed but we use AWS for all our production so we had to switch. Sorry to go but loved every minute of it!

QUOTAGUARD FTW! We used qg for spooling up a prototype that needed access to MongoDB through Heroku without having to use 0.0.0.0 in mdb whitelist. Big nono for privacy and security. QG helped as we were able to add it as a resource in Heroku and test our prototype. As the platform matured, more test users came on board and our bandwidth scaled to a point where we were no longer a prototype so we moved over to AWS which is where our production apps live. The team at QG is beyond awesome. I sent an email and I think within 24hrs or less we had solved the issues with Tim and Michael. The fact they didn't pester after signup was refreshing as well. They are Dev dev's who get it. QG helped us prove our pipeline and workflow with users and in the end, we would have stayed but we use AWS for all our production so we had to switch. Sorry to go but loved every minute of it!

I needed to configure a static IP address for my app running on Heroku, so I could connect to an external database in a more secure manner. A colleague recommended Quotaguard as an option.

The product works great - but where they really shine is the exceptional customer service. One of my background workers was sneakily polling, which didnt show on the logs, and the Quotaguard support team showed patience and knowledge helping me get to the root of the problem. Fantastic team.

Solid service. :) Does what's on the tin. They know what they're doing, and I mean that in two ways: (1) their execution of their value offering is *solid*, and (2) they appear undistracted by things that *aren't* what they're doing. A "small, sharp tools", you know?
