Find My External Public IP Address

See more HTTP Examples

To find your external public IP address (not your LAN IP address, such as 192.168.1.* or 172.16.16.*, etc), your application would need to send a request to an HTTP server that can report back on the origin IP address. You can easily write a simple script on your own web server to do it, or you can use a service such as ipify.org.

This example shows how to send a request to the ipify.org endpoint to get your public IP address.

Note
This example is intended for running within a Chilkat.Js embedded JavaScript engine. All Chilkat JavaScript examples require Chilkat v11.4.0 or greater.
JavaScript
var http = new CkHttp();
var my_ip_address = http.QuickGetStr("https://api.ipify.org");
if (http.LastMethodSuccess == false) {
    console.log(http.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

console.log("My Public IP Address: " + my_ip_address);
