'Whitelist IP required for external API

we have a Laravel project hosted on AWS with Laravel Forge.

An external API we use (via SOAP) has stopped working and the service have told us their IP's have changed on Cloudflare so we now need to whitelist them on our server.

The issue is, we have never had to whitelist their IP's before.

On Forge I can specify the new IP to whitelist but currently ports 443 / 80 are open by default to all traffic. The service doesn't seem to be providing much more information to us, is there any advice on which ports may need to be opened for an external API?

Their API is returning back to us with no errors apart from a 500 error on their end.
