For on-premises Octopus instances, ensure your server accepts HTTPS requests from IP address 51.8.40.170 to enable AI Assistant functionality. The DNS entry of your Octopus Server will also need to be resolvable over the Internet for the IP address to be able to communicate with it.
Cloud instances with the IP address allow list feature activated will need to add 51.8.40.170 to the allow list to enable AI Assistant functionality:
It is not possible to integrate Octopus AI Assistant with an on-premises Octopus instance that cannot accept HTTP requests from this public IP address.
