The request you send originates from the Appian Cloud which is a German IP address in Frankfurt. You have no access to the IP address of the client.
I think you will need to find another way to identify the clients location. I do not know of a way to do that automatically.
I did it in Ractjs, outsystems , but I do not know why in Appian we can not do it.
Appian is Low-Code Rapid development. There is no JavaScript in Appian.
May I ask what you want to achieve?
I want to get the current location and weather of the current user, I am using this API https://api.weatherapi.com/v1/current.json?key&q=auto:ip., is working perfect but only giving me the weather and location of the Apian server.
I think stefan explained the reason.-> https://community.appian.com/b/appmarket/posts/openweather-connected-systemPerhaps this is suitable for you as an alternative?
OK, I understood that. But for what purpose? I mean, in Appian we are typically implementing business processes ...
