IP Geolocation Lookup

IP and Network Intelligence
POST /api/v1/ip/geolocation Bearer

IP Geolocation API — locate an IPv4 or IPv6 address and describe the network behind it. Returns continent, country, state, district, city, postal code and coordinates, plus country metadata (calling code, TLD, languages, flag emoji), the local currency, the full time zone with current offset and DST state, and the network's ASN and owning company. Pass lang to localise place names. ip_address is optional — omit it to look up the IP that called this API. For threat flags, reverse hostname and abuse contacts in the same call, use IP Geolocation Enrichment.

1

What it doesSaves your API key in this browser only using localStorage. Next time you open a docs page, the Try It panel is pre-filled automatically.

2

Auto-updatesIf you type a different key into any Try It field, the saved key is replaced instantly — only the most recent key is ever stored.

3

Uncheck to forgetUnchecking “Remember API Key” immediately deletes the stored key and clears the field. While unchecked, nothing is saved even if you type a new key.

4

Re-check to save againChecking the box again saves whatever key is currently in the Try It field.

⚠ Security note: Your key is stored only in your browser and is never sent to any server except as part of the actual API call you send. Do not use this feature on shared or public computers.
