I would like to be able to insert the users IP adress in the email generated from the form builder/contact form

This is so necessary. We need to capture the IP Address to verify if the form submission is real, spam, fraud, etc.

@user4160 Thanks for upvoting the idea and welcome aboard :wink:

Is there a way to trace originating IP addresses for survey results? Or to change the survey so we can track IP addresses to confirm results are from unique users

Hi @Jennifer_Paupore welcome to community :clap:

Here’s a workaround that allows you to pass the client IP in the form. Give it a try.
GDPR compliance must be observed and data economy must be applied.

There is also a suggestion that you can vote for.

Hi there, @Jennifer_Paupore :wave:

Yes, we already have such a request on the Wishlist, and I’ve moved your comment there too :slightly_smiling_face:

You can also try the workaround by Sina. However, your clients must be informed that their IP addresses will be collected and * your clients that their IP addresses will be collected. All responsibility for applying this customization lies with you.
