| Burti API can be accessed both via HTTP and HTTPS, but it is strongly encouraged to serve your data over HTTPS only (this means disabling HTTP altogether). This will ensure that your traffic is encrypted and safe from third party snooping. See sample configuration to the right. The Program Mode setting is available in the Technics module (listed as a register). | Column |

Please note that this can be set up in multiple ways and very much depends on how your Standard ERP instance is run and where it is hosted. It very well may be that changes made to this setting will be overridden by command-line parameters or by settings in your hosting provider's Cloud control interface. If this is the case, contact your system administrator or hosting provider. |

Firewall white-listing
Normally the parties accessing API's reside at fixed network addresses. This is not always the case, but does apply for scenarios like web stores, connections with logistics companies, reporting tools and many others. If you are providing access to software or tools that does reside at a fixed IP address or addresses, consider only allowing access to your server from these addresses in your firewall if you have one in place, or setting one up if you do not already. This way other parties will not be able to connect to the API at all, unless you explicitly allow them by whitelisting in your firewall software or hardware.
