🔧 How it works - Receive IP Webhook: This node acts as the entry point, listening for incoming POST requests. It expects a JSON body containing an ip property with the IP address you wish to look up. - Get IP Geolocation: This node makes an HTTP GET request to the IP-API.com service, passing the IP address from your webhook. The API responds with a comprehensive JSON object detailing the IP's location (country, city, region), ISP, organization, and more. - Respond with Geolocation Data: This node sends the full geolocation data received from IP-API.com back to the service that initiated the webhook.
