description: Pantheon API
<!--- END of page meta data -->
Access the [Pantheon API](../Reference/Pantheon-API-Methods.md) using:
* [JSON-RPC over HTTP or WebSockets](Using-JSON-RPC-API.md)
* [RPC Pub/Sub over WebSockets](RPC-PubSub.md)
* GraphQL RPC over HTTP
Information applying to JSON-RPC, RPC Pub/Sub, and GraphQL is included below.
## Host Whitelist
To prevent DNS rebinding, incoming HTTP requests, WebSockets connections, and GraphQL requests are only accepted from hostnames
specified using the [`--host-whitelist`](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#host-whitelist) option.
By default, `localhost` and `127.0.0.1` are accepted.
If your application publishes RPC ports, specify the hostnames when starting Pantheon.
!!! example
```bash
pantheon --host-whitelist=example.com
```
Specify * for `--host-whitelist` to effectively disable host protection.
!!! caution
Specifying * for `--host-whitelist` is not recommended for production code.
## Not Supported by Pantheon
### Account Management
Account management relies on private key management in the client which is not implemented by Pantheon.
Use [`eth_sendRawTransaction`](../Reference/Pantheon-API-Methods.md#eth_sendrawtransaction) to send signed transactions; `eth_sendTransaction` is not implemented.
Use third-party wallets for [account management](../Using-Pantheon/Account-Management.md).
### Protocols
Pantheon does not implement the Whisper and Swarm protocols.
