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.

Swift

func chilkatTest() {
    let http = CkoHttp()!
    var my_ip_address: String? = http.quickGetStr(url: "https://api.ipify.org")
    if http.lastMethodSuccess == false {
        print("\(http.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    print("My Public IP Address: \(my_ip_address!)")

}
