I have a MongoDB instance on Railway (Basic Plan) and my backend server is deployed on a Google Cloud Server. I want to restrict database access so that only my backend server’s IP address can connect. How can I configure Railway to allow access for specific IP addresses only?

I don't think you can allow access to specific IP addresses only.

My recommendation is to host your backend on Railway so you're able to use the internal network.

You can probably use Tailscale to create a VPN, this will make the access 'internal only'.

I use the Tailscale Forwarder template in Railway, which is very simple to setup.

Also, Tailscale up to 3 users, free, so you'll have no cost.

Hope I've helped.
