Retrieve a location the request came from.

I see that it is pretty easy to retrieve a request's source Ip Address. I'm wondering if there is anywhere in Khoros that also tracks Country/City/State origin of a request?  We'd like to know where...

    Hi csolis214 ,

    unfortunately not. The information you mentioned is not populated to the request object within the endpoint.

Hi csolis214 ,

You can get this information in LSI by applying the filter (by country). But if you are looking for Country/State/City, the best source of information is bulk data API. See this documentation for more details.

Hope this helps!

Thanks,
Srujana.

Hey srujanayeruvaka Thanks for the response!

That definitely seems very useful but I was wondering if there was something that was built-in to the request possibly, that you can pull of on the Lithium side.

I'm interested in more of a per-request solution every time Lithium receives a request. Is there anything like that?

Thanks!
