The Problem

Upsun (formerly Platform.sh) uses dynamic outbound IPs that change with deploys, scaling events, and region changes

Dynamic Outbound IPs

Upsun routes outbound traffic through shared infrastructure. Your app's outgoing IP changes with each deploy, region change, or scaling event — breaking IP-based allowlists.

No Built-In Static IP

Unlike some PaaS providers, Upsun doesn't offer a self-service static outbound IP option. You need an external proxy solution for consistent outbound addressing.

Multi-App Complexity

Upsun projects often contain multiple apps — frontend, API, workers — that all need the same outbound IP for consistent API whitelisting across the entire project.

EU Compliance Requirements

Upsun serves many European businesses that need EU-based outbound infrastructure for GDPR compliance and regulatory audits. A US-routed proxy defeats the purpose.

When a Partner Asks

"Provide the IP address that will access our API."

You need a stable, predictable answer for your Upsun project — not an IP that changes with every deploy.

The Solution

Use a Dedicated HTTPS Proxy with Static EU-Based IP

Upsun App

HTTPS Proxy

(Static EU IP)

External API

The external API sees one fixed EU IP address — every request from your Upsun project.

Set environment variables via Upsun CLI or Console

Works with all Upsun runtimes: PHP, Node.js, Python, Ruby, Go, Java, and more

No app code changes required — standard HTTP_PROXY / HTTPS_PROXY env vars

Why Upsun Users Choose This

Works with all Upsun project types — PHP, Node.js, Python, Ruby, Go, Java, and more

One static IP across all apps in a project — frontend, API, and workers

Self-service setup via environment variables — no support ticket needed

EU-hosted infrastructure matching Upsun's European presence

No app code changes — standard HTTP_PROXY / HTTPS_PROXY env vars

Works with Platform.sh projects too — same underlying infrastructure

How It Works

Your Upsun project routes outbound HTTPS requests through your dedicated proxy. All requests originate from a single static EU IP. You whitelist that IP once. That's it.

Basic Setup for Upsun

Set the HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY environment variables on your Upsun project using the CLI or the Console. This works with all Upsun-supported runtimes and applies across all apps in your project.

# Option 1: Using the Upsun CLI
$ upsun variable:set env:HTTPS_PROXY \
    https://user:pass@eu-01.outboundgateway.com:8443 \
    --environment main

$ upsun variable:set env:HTTP_PROXY \
    https://user:pass@eu-01.outboundgateway.com:8443 \
    --environment main

# Option 2: Using the Upsun Console
# Go to Project > Settings > Variables
# Add: env:HTTPS_PROXY = https://user:pass@eu-01.outboundgateway.com:8443
# Add: env:HTTP_PROXY  = https://user:pass@eu-01.outboundgateway.com:8443

# Deploy to apply
$ upsun deploy
