#### Yeah, maybe I can set a wildcard on the Siteground end. The docs do say you can use % for IP ranges, hopefully for hostnames too.

#### It was possibly a one-click WordPress install within the Siteground environment, with some importing from a previous site. It’s been running for ages.

#### It’s not the WP credentials etc per o1lab’s message…

#### 

#### The issue is that the Nocodb connection on Heroku is coming in via [ec2-xxxxx-xxxx.amazonaws.com](http://ec2-xxxxx-xxxx.amazonaws.com), and that particular hostname rotates. It’s different this morning than it was last night.

#### 

#### So the connection is being denied by my MySQL database (as per the browser Network tab message), because it’s not on the [amazonaws.com](http://amazonaws.com) I allowed as a remote.

#### 

#### I’m pretty sure I could whitelist this morning’s hostname and it would be fine. But I can’t predict all the hostnames.

#### 

#### 1. I’ve no idea why Heroku would come in via [amazonaws.com](http://amazonaws.com) (do they use them?).

#### 

#### 2. I can’t use a wildcard % in specifying the hostnames.
