  5. In case you have configured the AEM publish instance to allow access only to trusted IP addresses by Cloud Manager’s IP Allowlist feature, you need to configure a header with a key value in the settings dialog as shown below.
    The IPs which need to whitelisted also need to moved to the configuration file and need to be unapplied from the Cloud Manager settings.

    The same key needs to be configured at AEM CDN configuration. It is recommended to not put the header value directly in GITHub and use a secret reference.
    A sample CDN config is given below:
