The Official Python client by the ipdata team. To report bugs or submit feature suggestions create an issue at https://github.com/ipdata/python/issues/new
Installation
pip3 install ipdata
Basic Usage
Sample Request
from ipdata import ipdata
from pprint import pprint
# Create an instance of an ipdata object. Replace `test` with your API Key
ipdata = ipdata.IPData('test')
response = ipdata.lookup('69.78.70.144')
pprint(response)
Sample Response
The library adds a status attribute with the status code returned by the API. You can use this to troubleshoot common errors.

Getting Only One Field
Sample Request
from ipdata import ipdata
from pprint import pprint
# Create an instance of an ipdata object. Replace `test` with your API Key
ipdata = ipdata.IPData('test')
response = ipdata.lookup('8.8.8.8', select_field='organisation')
pprint(response)
Sample Response
The library response for single field queries is formatted differently from the API. Here we return a dict with the selected field as key with the API response value and a status code attribute with the operation's status code.
{'organisation': 'Google LLC', 'status': 200}
Customizing the Response
You can pass a list of fields you'd like from the API and only those fields will be returned in the response.
Sample Request
from ipdata import ipdata
from pprint import pprint
# Create an instance of an ipdata object. Replace `test` with your API Key
ipdata = ipdata.IPData('test')
response = ipdata.lookup('8.8.8.8', fields=['ip','organisation','country_name'])
pprint(response)
Sample Response
{'country_name': 'United States',
 'ip': '8.8.8.8',
 'organisation': 'Google LLC',
 'status': 200}
Bulk Lookups
You can lookup up to 100 IP Addresses at a time via the bulk endpoint. Note that this feature is only available to paid users.
You can limit the response to specific fields eg. country_name by passing a fields list to the bulk_lookup function.
Sample Request
from ipdata import ipdata
from pprint import pprint
# Create an instance of an ipdata object. Replace `test` with your API Key
ipdata = ipdata.IPData('test')
response = ipdata.bulk_lookup(['8.8.8.8','1.1.1.1'])
pprint(response)
