You can restrict access to your Timescale Cloud services to trusted IP addresses only. This prevents unauthorized connections without the need for a Virtual Private Cloud. Creating IP allow lists helps comply with security standards such as SOC 2 or HIPAA that require IP filtering. This is especially useful in regulated industries like finance, healthcare, and government.

Important

You attach a service to either one VPC, or one IP allow list. You cannot attach a service to a VPC and an IP allow list at the same time.

You create an IP allow list at the project level, then attach your service to it.

  1. In Timescale Console, select Security > IP Allow List, then click Create IP Allow List.

    Create IP allow list

  2. Enter your trusted IP addresses.

    The number of IP addresses that you can include in one list depends on your pricing plan.

    Add IP addresses to allow list

  3. Name your allow list and click Create IP Allow List.

    Click + Create IP Allow List to create another list. The number of IP allow lists you can create depends on your pricing plan.

  4. Select a Timescale Cloud service, then click Operations > Security > IP Allow List.

    Attach IP allow list

  5. Select the list in the drop-down and click Apply.

  6. Type Apply in the confirmation popup.

You have created and attached an IP allow list. You can unattach or change the list attached to a service from the same tab.
