How do I find out what IPs to give, my IP doesnt stay the same? The local IP is hardly the one they want, it wouldnt make sense I think.

You could get a free dynDNS name with noip.com (you’ll need to verify the domain every month by logging in) this way even if you have a dynamic ip, it automatically gets updated via the hostname if you set this in your router (most brands should be able to do this).
That wouldn’t work for this…
A domain, a full fledged one or a free dyndns subdomain tells the world how to communicate with your ip, but it isn’t involved when you talk to the world.
When your software is hitting the API from your network, all the API sees is your IP address, it has no knowledge of any urls that may point to it.
OP just needs to hope their IP address doesn’t change regularly, and give them their public IP to whitelist.
