Disallow WHM API Access on port 443; allow only on 2087

Question regarding API Tokens in WHM · cPanel & WHM Developer Portal

API calls using a method that includes a URL must use one the following ports:

• 2087 - Secure calls to WHM's APIs, or to cPanel's APIs via the WHM API.
• 443 - Secure calls to WHM's APIs, or to cPanel's APIs via the WHM API through a service subdomain.

I would like to restrict API calls to only port 2087 and disallow any API call on port 443 or any port other than 2087.

Do I simply need to set service subdomains to "off" under tweak settings to restrict all WHM API calls to port 2087 only, or do I need to do more?

(I wish to restrict API calls to port 2087 so I can use firewall controls to restrict access to specific IPs for an additional layer of security.)

Hey there! Turning off proxy subdomains would accomplish that so the calls would need 2087 to function. If that doesn't work how you expect just let me know!
