Documentation

ipdata provides a JSON IP Address Geolocation API that allows you to lookup the location of any IP address, both IPv4 and IPv6.
Getting Started
The simplest call you can make would be a parameter-less GET call to the API endpoint at https://api.ipdata.co. This would return the location of the calling IP address.
curl https://api.ipdata.co?api-key=test
To lookup a specific IP Address
curl https://api.ipdata.co/8.8.8.8?api-key=test

dataTask.resume()
All calls must be made to the https endpoint. No requests will be served over unsecured HTTP.
 Make sure to sign up for a Free API key here to test these examples.
The test API key used in these examples is very limited and very heavily rate limited and is meant only for a few initial tests.
