Request "ip" property is undefined, even deployed on Vercel

Sign In

Even with the project deployed to Vercel, the "ip" property on the NextRequest request object in a Route Handler is undefined. I have a deployed website to prove this.

Website route: https://vercel-req-ip-test.vercel.app/api/ip

This page returns your ip by the request.ip and from the headers.

Hi, !

I found this old GitHub Discussions thread with a solution, does this work for you?

How does NextRequest gets the ip from the request? · vercel/next.js · Discussion #33435

I'm trying to use the new middleware feature to log some information including the request IP. During my tests NextRequest.ip always returns undefined I'm running a local express server and already...

Hey!

The headers do give the IP information, however using request.ip is more secure right?

The docs say request.ip should be provided on deployments on Vercel, but this is not happening to me.

Thank you!
