info

If you have enabled an allow list in your Jenkins account, certain Harness IP addresses must be added to it in order to allow communication between the Harness Platform and Jenkins. If the necessary IPs are not whitelisted, the integration may fail to authenticate or sync data properly.

To ensure your integration can work correctly, please refer to the list of Harness Platform IPs that may need to be whitelisted in your firewall.
