To ensure secure communication between your systems and GoKart, it is essential to implement the following security measures:

adding GoKart to your whitelist IP addresses

using secret API tokens for authentication

These steps help protect your data and ensure that only authorized requests are processed.

Add GoKart to Whitelist IP Addresses

To secure your API endpoints, add GoKart's IP addresses to your whitelist. This ensures that only requests originating from GoKart's servers are accepted, protecting your system from unauthorized access.

Steps to Whitelist GoKart IP Addresses

Obtain the list of GoKart IP addresses from our support team

Add these IP addresses to your server's firewall or security settings

Configure your API endpoint to accept requests only from these whitelisted IP addresses

Secret API Token

GoKart can send a secret API token with each request to authenticate and secure the communication. These tokens are stored as encrypted text within GoKart, adding an extra layer of security.

Using Secret API Tokens

Generate a Secret API Token

Contact GoKart support to generate a unique secret API token for your account

Ensure the token is securely stored and not exposed in any client-side code

Validate the Secret API Token

Configure your server to expect the secret API token in the headers of incoming requests from GoKart.

Validate the token against the stored token value to authenticate the request.
