Abuse Reports allow you to submit take-down requests for URLs hosted by
ngrok that violate ngrok’s terms of service.
API Keys are used to authenticate to the
ngrok
API. You may use the API itself
to provision and manage API Keys but you’ll need to provision your first API
key from the
API Keys page on your
ngrok.com dashboard.
Certificate Authorities are x509 certificates that are used to sign other
x509 certificates. Attach a Certificate Authority to the Mutual TLS module
to verify that the TLS certificate presented by a client has been signed by
this CA. Certificate Authorities are used only for mTLS validation only and
thus a private key is not included in the resource.
Tunnel Credentials are ngrok agent authtokens. They authorize the ngrok
agent to connect the ngrok service as your account. They are installed with
the ngrok config add-authtoken
command or by specifying it in the ngrok.yml
configuration file with the authtoken
property.
Endpoints provides an API for querying the endpoint objects
which define what tunnel or edge is used to serve a hostport.
Only active endpoints associated with a tunnel or backend are returned.
IP Policies are reusable groups of CIDR ranges with an allow
or deny
action. They can be attached to endpoints via the Endpoint Configuration IP
Policy module. They can also be used with IP Restrictions to control source
IP ranges that can start tunnel sessions and connect to the API and dashboard.
IP Policy Rules are the IPv4 or IPv6 CIDRs entries that
make up an IP Policy.
An IP restriction is a restriction placed on the CIDRs that are allowed to
initiate traffic to a specific aspect of your ngrok account. An IP
restriction has a type which defines the ingress it applies to. IP
restrictions can be used to enforce the source IPs that can make API
requests, log in to the dashboard, start ngrok agents, and connect to your
public-facing endpoints.
Reserved Addresses are TCP addresses that can be used to listen for traffic.
TCP address hostnames and ports are assigned by ngrok, they cannot be
chosen.
Reserved Domains are hostnames that you can listen for traffic on. Domains
can be used to listen for http, https or tls traffic. You may use a domain
that you own by creating a CNAME record specified in the returned resource.
This CNAME record points traffic for that domain to ngrok’s edge servers.
An SSH Certificate Authority is a pair of an SSH Certificate and its private
key that can be used to sign other SSH host and user certificates.
SSH Credentials are SSH public keys that can be used to start SSH tunnels
via the ngrok SSH tunnel gateway.
SSH Host Certificates along with the corresponding private key allows an SSH
server to assert its authenticity to connecting SSH clients who trust the
SSH Certificate Authority that was used to sign the certificate.
SSH User Certificates are presented by SSH clients when connecting to an SSH
server to authenticate their connection. The SSH server must trust the SSH
Certificate Authority used to sign the certificate.
TLS Certificates are pairs of x509 certificates and their matching private
key that can be used to terminate TLS traffic. TLS certificates are unused
until they are attached to a Domain. TLS Certificates may also be
provisioned by ngrok automatically for domains on which you have enabled
automated certificate provisioning.
Tunnel Sessions represent instances of ngrok agents or SSH reverse tunnel
sessions that are running and connected to the ngrok service. Each tunnel
session can include one or more Tunnels.
Tunnels provide endpoints to access services exposed by a running ngrok
agent tunnel session or an SSH reverse tunnel session.
