**This is for developer-specific feature requests. For other requests please contact our customer support team.**

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**  
The reports and API requests make it hard to isolate distinct participants in a Zoom meeting. Some names are generic, and repeated, and can also change mid-meeting. IP (both external and internal) is one of the more reliable ways of deduping.

**Describe the solution you’d like**  
Some of the dashboard reports provides both external and internal IPs, which makes it possible to best-guess when a participant is rejoining from the same device. I’d like one of the participant meeting endpoints to support this.  
A similar request was described here: [Internal IP Info Of The Participants - #3 by mustafa](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/internal-ip-info-of-the-participants/32717/3) but I don’t believe was followed up with a feature request.
