IP Retriever
Description
Adds a way to get the user's IP address by sending a web request and extracting the result.
How to use the extension
This extension gets the user's public IP address via a web request to ipify.
⚠️ Important: Before storing any IP address in a database, it is strongly recommended to hash it. This helps protect user privacy and prevents unauthorized access to raw IP addresses. ⚠️
Instructions (how to use it)
Actions
- Call
IP_Adress::GetIPto fetch the IP.
Conditions
- Use
IP Adress is readyto check if the IP has been retrieved. - Use
Failed to get the user's IP Adressto check if the action has failed.
Expressions
- Use
IP_Adress::Adress()to get the parsed IP as a string. - Use
IP_Adress::Error()to get the error message if an error occurred.
Example:
When combined with a database system such as Firebase Realtime Database, this extension can be used to implement IP-based bans. This allows developers to prevent users from rejoining a multiplayer lobby after engaging in fraudulent or disruptive behavior, ensuring a safer and more secure gameplay environment.

👋 Hey ReaverZx, thanks for your submission! Unfortunately, all submitted extensions have to meet some minimal quality standard - the extension best practices - and our system has found that your extension does not fully comply 😔. You can find all of those rules on the GDevelop wiki.
The following issues have been found by the system concerning the respect of those best practices by your extension:
⟶ ❌ [Filled out names and descriptions]: Required field 'sentence' of the function 'HasFailed' is not filled out!
⟶ ❌ [Filled out names and descriptions]: Required field 'sentence' of the function 'IsReady' is not filled out!
⟶ ❌ [Extension name consistency]: Extension filename should be exactly the name of the extension (with .json extension). Please rename 'IPRetrieverExtension.json' to 'IPRetriever.json'.
Please update your original submission post with a new zip file containing your extensions updated to follow those guidelines 🙏
