How to Use the IP Lookup API

Add IP intelligence to your app in minutes. Start free — no payment info needed.

01

Get a free API key

Create a FonProxy account and navigate to API Keys. Generate your key — it starts with fnp_ and unlocks 30 requests per minute.

02

Make your first request

Pass the IP address in the URL path. Authenticate using the Authorization: Bearer header with your API key.

GET https://api.fonproxy.io/geo/ip/8.8.8.8
Authorization: Bearer fnp_your_key_here
03

Parse the normalized response

The normalized object contains the merged best-effort data across all providers — country, city, ASN, ISP, proxy detection, and more.

{
  "ip": "8.8.8.8",
  "normalized": {
    "country": "United States",
    "countryCode": "US",
    "city": "Mountain View",
    "asn": 15169,
    "isp": "Google LLC",
    "isProxy": false
  }
}
04

Get raw per-provider data

Add ?with_sources=1 to your request to also receive the raw response from every enabled database provider.

GET https://api.fonproxy.io/geo/ip/8.8.8.8?with_sources=1

IP Knowledge

Why IP Addresses Matter

Your IP address reveals more information about you than you might think.

Privacy & Identity

Every website you visit can see your IP, approximate location, ISP, and connection type. This data builds a profile over time.

Geo-Restricted Content

Many services restrict access based on IP country or region. Knowing your IP helps you verify what content you can access.

Security Monitoring

Attackers scan IPs to find open ports and vulnerabilities. Knowing your exposure helps you protect yourself.

Network Diagnostics

Developers and sysadmins use IP lookups to debug routing issues, verify proxy chains, and check ASN assignments.

Protect Yourself from IP Tracking

Anyone on the internet can see your real IP address unless you actively protect it. Here is how proxies help.

Use an anonymous proxy

An elite (high-anonymity) proxy replaces your IP with a clean exit IP and removes all forwarding headers, so target servers cannot detect you are using a proxy.

Route DNS through the proxy

Ensure your DNS queries also go through the proxy tunnel. DNS leaks reveal your real location even when your HTTP traffic is proxied.

Verify after connecting

After connecting, use this tool to confirm your visible IP, location, and ISP match the proxy you purchased — not your real identity.
