Network Access for Sonatype IQ Cloud

Sonatype IQ Cloud serves applications from multiple IP address ranges. These addresses may change occasionally as infrastructure evolves, though such changes are infrequent.

  • Prefer domain-based allow lists. Because IP addresses can change over time, allow access by domain name (for example, *.iq.sonatype.app) wherever possible.

  • If you must use IP allow listing, use the /meta API described below to identify the current IP ranges for your tenant and monitor that endpoint regularly for updates.

  • Required ports: Ensure your systems allow TCP ports 80 and 443 to the IP ranges provided.

Accessing Tenant Network Metadata (/meta Endpoint)

Each IQ Cloud tenant exposes a /meta API resource that lists the IP address ranges used by IQ Cloud services for both API and webhook (hooks) traffic.

This endpoint is modeled after GitHub’s /meta API and provides a simple, programmatically accessible way to retrieve your tenant’s active network IPs.

Endpoint format:

https://<tenant_name>.iq.sonatype.app/meta

Example

Request:

GET https://exampletenant.iq.sonatype.app/meta
curl -s https://exampletenant.iq.sonatype.app/meta

Response:

{
  "api": [
    "15.197.249.175/32",
    "3.33.231.117/32"
  ],
  "hooks": [
    "13.56.205.139/32",
    "15.222.84.149/32",
    "18.222.5.67/32"
  ]
}

Understanding the Response

The /meta resource returns two lists of CIDR-formatted IP ranges:

Field

Description

api

IP ranges used by IQ Cloud APIs and applications. These are the endpoints your systems, plugins, or users connect to (outbound connections from your network).

hooks

IP ranges used by IQ Cloud to deliver webhooks or other outbound connections to your infrastructure (inbound connections to your network).

Email Notifications

IQ Cloud sends automated notification and verification emails from [email protected]. Outbound mail is sent via Twilio SendGrid (formerly SendGrid).

The service uses the following SMTP server:

  • Hostname: smtp.sendgrid.net

  • Port: 465 (TCP)

For environments with strict firewall or mail-gateway policies, ensure traffic to smtp.sendgrid.net is allowed and that emails from [email protected] are not blocked or filtered.
