 If your API Management service is a Consumption tier service, it doesn't have a dedicated IP address. Consumption tier service runs on a shared infrastructure and without a deterministic IP address.
 
-For traffic restriction purposes, you can use the range of IP addresses of Azure data centers. Refer to [the Azure Functions documentation article](../azure-functions/ip-addresses.md#data-center-outbound-ip-addresses) for precise steps.
+If you need to add the outbound IP addresses used by your Consumption tier instance to an allowlist, you can add the instance's data center (Azure region) to an allowlist. You can [download a JSON file that lists IP addresses for all Azure data centers](https://www.microsoft.com/download/details.aspx?id=56519). Then find the JSON fragment that applies to the region that your instance runs in.
+
+For example, the following JSON fragment is what the allowlist for Western Europe might look like:
+
+```json
+{
+  "name": "AzureCloud.westeurope",
+  "id": "AzureCloud.westeurope",
+  "properties": {
+    "changeNumber": 9,
+    "region": "westeurope",
+    "platform": "Azure",
+    "systemService": "",
+    "addressPrefixes": [
+      "13.69.0.0/17",
+      "13.73.128.0/18",
+      ... Some IP addresses not shown here
+     "213.199.180.192/27",
+     "213.199.183.0/24"
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
