Hello,

I would like to know if it is possible to retrieve the IP address of a user who is using our Zoom Marketplace App. Does Zoom allow access to the user’s device IP address in this context?

Additionally, would the following code reliably capture the user’s IP address?

```auto
const ip = req.headers['x-forwarded-for'] || req.socket.remoteAddress;

```

Would this return the actual IP address of the user’s device, or would it provide the IP address of Zoom servers or intermediaries?

i checked the logs in the dashboard section and found participant ips under meeting details. it’s not in the api, but easy to spot if u’re the account admin
