Connect Heroku app to Atlas MongoDB using static IP

Question

I'm trying to connect my Heroku app to Atlas MongoDB using static IP.

I've installed QuotaGuard Shield Static IP.

When running heroku run bash and then running curl http://icanhazip.com/ I get a different IP than then ones mentioned in QuotaGuard Shield's dashboard.

Does anyone know what am I missing in the configuration of QG Shield?

Answer 1

You need to use curl -x $QUOTAGUARDSHIELD_URL http://icanhazip.com.

You have to tell curl to use the proxy.
