IP allowlisting for Claude organizations (beta)
Summary
On 2026-11-05 Anthropic added a beta IP allowlist to the Claude Console. Requests to covered services from addresses outside the list are refused, which limits where a leaked API key can be used. The same release notes add a beta Admin API call that signs a Claude Enterprise member out everywhere.
Key points
- IP allowlist: set in the Claude Console; IPv4 and IPv6 addresses or CIDR ranges, up to 1,000 entries per organization. The docs page lists which services are covered.
- Plan before enabling: CI runners, cron hosts (such as a home Raspberry Pi on a dynamic IP), and developer laptops all need to be inside the list, or their calls will fail.
- Sign a member out everywhere (beta): an Admin API request ends a Claude Enterprise member's sessions on all devices. The member stays in the organization and can sign in again. It needs a beta header; the user-management docs list what the request does not end.

Why it matters
API keys are the main credential for Claude apps and agents; an allowlist turns a leaked key from a full compromise into a much smaller problem.
