Firewall Allow Listing Rules

We recommend that, in advance of launching your Actionable Program, you ensure that your participants can access the Platform and continue to receive opted-in notifications by following the Firewall Allow Listing Rules. You may need to provide this to the IT Support Team for assistance in implementation. If there are any questions, please reach out to help@actionable.co

If any organizations using the Actionable Platform encounter issues with all or part of the sites being blocked, it's possible that the organization's firewall is restricting access to one of the domain hostnames (domains) used by the platform. if you suspect this is the case, the organization should request that the following hosts be allow-listed in the firewall.

The domains that begin with *. in front of them contain multiple hosts that end in the domain listed. For example, *.actionable.co also needs start.actionable.co and company.actionable.co, etc.

  • *.actionable.co
  • d2f3r8mzt3yjuf.cloudfront.net
  • *.gravatar.com
  • *.trackjs.com
  • .fonts.gstatic.com
  • *.vimeo.com
  • *.vimeocdn.com
  • *@ses.actionable.co

In addition to the above, emails from .  You can add this e-mail address to the safe senders list so that Participants receive their invitations, feedback requests, check-in reminders, etc.  Email from the Actionable platform is delivered by Amazon Web Services and not from a static IP address under Actionable’s control. If your organization is filtering based on headers, email is signed from the MAIL FROM domain ses.actionable.co.  We support SPF, DKIM and DMARC protocols.
