public ip addresses used for API calls to my Meraki enviroment?

Hi all, I would like to limit the API access to my Meraki enviroment.  What public IP addresses does LM use to do the API calls to my Meraki enviroment?

    That would be your collector egress addresses. Generally the only LM-originated access would be from the website check source addresses (documented in the support site).

Run this code on your collector debug console by issuing !groovy and pasting in the code. You don’t need to select a device:

ip = new URL("https://api.ipify.org").getText()
if (ip) {
  println("public.ipaddress=${ip}")
  return 0
} else {
  return 1
}

For those paying attention, this is the basis for a really easy configsource that you can apply to all your collectors so you can see whenever it changes.
