Request Filters

This feature allows you to control and secure which requests are processed, preventing unauthorized usage and potential abuse. To explore it, navigate to the Config tab inside dashboard and select Request Filters

Origin Filtering

Origin filtering enables you to specify which website origins (domains) are permitted or denied.

  • Allowlist: By default, all origins are blocked except those explicitly listed.
  • Blocklist: By default, all origins are allowed except those explicitly listed.

This feature is particularly useful for preventing malicious actors from embedding your website and creating fraudulent replicas.

HTTP Header Filtering

HTTP header filtering allows you to block requests based on specific HTTP headers.

Example: You can block requests with a specific Referer header to prevent unauthorized access originating from third-party sites.
For instance, if you want to block requests coming from an untrusted website, you can add a filter:

  • Header name: Referer
  • Match rule: Contains
  • Value: untrusted-domain.com
