Free IP API

How it works?

FreeIPAPI is a free service for commercial and non-commercial uses. We're using free and opensource databases such as ip2location to provide this API. Since we're running servers to provide this service, To prevent heavy loads on our servers we applied a limit of 60 requests per minute to the users, However, if you need more, You can subscribe to one of our paid plans.

How to use

The API accepts GET and POST methods and you can pass ip field as body or query param. However, If you don't pass the ip field we'll use the sender's ip address to extract the information. Here you can find some sample codes to use it however, you can read our documentation

<?php

$ipAddress = "{IP-ADDRESS}";
$url = "https://freeipapi.com/api/json/$ipAddress";

$response = file_get_contents($url);
$data = json_decode($response, true);

print_r($data);

# Get the ip info
curl https://freeipapi.com/api/json/1.1.1.1

# Get only public ip address
curl https://freeipapi.com

import requests

ip_address = "{IP-ADDRESS}"
url = f"https://freeipapi.com/api/json/{ip_address}"

response = requests.get(url)
data = response.json()

print(data)

    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        String ipAddress = "{IP-ADDRESS}";
        String urlString = "https://freeipapi.com/api/json/" + ipAddress;

        URL url = new URL(urlString);
        HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
        connection.setRequestMethod("GET");

        BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(connection.getInputStream()));
        StringBuilder response = new StringBuilder();
        String line;
        while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
            response.append(line);
        }
        reader.close();

        System.out.println(response.toString());
    }
}

const axios = require('axios');

const ipAddress = "{IP-ADDRESS}";
const url = `https://freeipapi.com/api/json/${ipAddress}`; // to get specific ip's info
// const url = `https://freeipapi.com/api/json`; // to get current request's ip info

axios.get(url)
    .then(response => {
