Home IP address blocked from connecting to the API

[Sean Whalen]

Somehow my home IP address has recently been blocked from connecting to https://dns.googleapis.com.

I'm not comfortable posting my IP address here in public, and I don't have a support plan because it's a personal account. Is there any way to get someone from Google to look into this?

I contributed a Python project to the community for managing Google Cloud DNS, and now I can't use it. I also can't renew Let's Encrypt certificates in my home without API access.I've thought about moving all of my hosting to Digital Ocean, but I don't like how their API keys give read and/or write access to everything or nothing in an account, with no scoping.

Hello 

Thank you for your question. Can you please explain how and when your IP has been blocked for https://dns.googleapis.com.? Has anything changed on your end recently? Is it working for other public Google domains? Could you confirm that you can access https://dns.googleapis.com normally when accessing it from other IPs?

Also, It is worth mentioning that Google Groups is a place for non-technical how-to questions (where you're likely to find information like service status updates and release notes, and ranging from book recommendations to creative shortcuts) [2].

Therefore, I would recommend you to consider reaching out to Stack Exchange sites [3] (e.g. Server Fault [4] )where Google also participates that can help you find answers and troubleshoot problems. 

If you find any indication of a GCP specific issue, you may consider reporting [5] the issue with Issue Tracker with all the details [6] (omitting PII/sensitive information). You may also file a case with the GCP Support [7] and we will be more than happy to help. 

Regards

Anik
