# Managing endpoints
{: #endpoints_manage_v2}

You can use the the IBM Cloud® Activity Tracker Event Routing CLI or IBM Cloud Activity Tracker Event Routing REST API to manage private and public endpoints in your account.
{: shortdesc}

You can view the type of endpoints that are available in the account to manage Activity Tracker Event Routing by using the [settings API](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/atracker?topic=atracker-settings&format=markdown).
{: tip}

## Private endpoints
{: #endpoints_manage_v2_private}

By default, private endpoints are enabled.

- You cannot disable private endpoints.

- The private endpoint format is as follows:

    ```text
    https://private.<region>.atracker.cloud.ibm.com/api/v2
    ```
    {: codeblock}

- For more information about the list of `ENDPOINTS` that are available, see [Private endpoints](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/atracker?topic=atracker-endpoints_manage_v2&format=markdown#endpoints_manage_v2_private).


## Public endpoints
{: #endpoints_manage_v2_public}

By default, public endpoints are enabled.

- You can disable public endpoints per region in your account.

- The public endpoint format is as follows:

    ```text
    https://<region>.atracker.cloud.ibm.com/api/v2
    ```
    {: codeblock}

For more information about the list of `ENDPOINTS` that are available, see [Public endpoints](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/atracker?topic=atracker-endpoints_manage_v2&format=markdown#endpoints_manage_v2_public).


## Disabling public endpoints
{: #endpoints_manage_v2_public_disable}

If public and private endpoints are enabled, you can disable a public endpoint by using private or public endpoints.

If public endpoints have been disabled, you can only enable public endpoints by using the private endpoint.
