Need network whitelisting of API key for CI and Terraform

Hi great Mongo people. The API key under organizational settings operates under a whitelisting model. There is currently no way (I can see) to open the key to 0.0.0.0/0. But in use cases where you make calls to Atlas to manage infrastructure through Terraform (like I do) and use a CI SAAS tool like Gitlab (like I do) that is built on a cloud (like GCP) there is an insane amount of whitelisting that is required. Also, about every 3rd run I have to come in and add another white list IP so that my Terraform can run. Could you please make 0.0.0.0/0 a possible entry? Thank you!

    Hi John, While it's not a best practice (which is why Atlas discourages) you can in fact combine multiple CIDRs to achieve 0.0.0.0 e.g. by adding two rules: 0.0.0.0/1 and 128.0.0.0/1 I suggest doing this only if you're certain you've got appropriate key management hygiene in place and ideally only for testing -Andrew
