Good to know, thank you. I wanted to tag you but wasn't sure if that was possible. Was the change made in relation to this or had you already previouslly decided to implement one?

Something I probably missed when I first spun up this instance to be honest. Should have been enabled from day 1.

Ehh, first few days I can see the benefit of having the lowest barrier to entry as possible. No one knew there was an API exploit then.
