  title: Fastly Access Control Lists ACL Entry API
  description: The Fastly Access Control Lists API allows developers to create and manage ACLs that can be used to control access to content at the edge. ACLs contain entries of IP addresses or CIDR ranges that can be referenced in VCL to allow or deny requests. The API supports creating ACL containers, adding and removing individual entries, and performing bulk updates to efficiently manage large IP allowlists or blocklists without requiring a new service version deployment.
