Overview#

The MaxMind GeoIP2 API enables you to identify the geographical location of your users based on their IP addresses. It offers data such as country, city, postal code, latitude and longitude, and more. On Pipedream, you can leverage this API to create powerful workflows that respond to IP-based events with geo-specific outcomes. Whether for security, personalization, or data analytics, integrating GeoIP2 within Pipedream workflows allows you to automate actions based on user locations.

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    maxmind_geoip2: {
      type: "app",
      app: "maxmind_geoip2",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://geoip.maxmind.com/geoip/v2.1/country/me`,
      headers: {
        "Accept": `application/json`,
      },
      auth: {
        username: `${this.maxmind_geoip2.$auth.account_id}`,
        password: `${this.maxmind_geoip2.$auth.license_key}`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Example Use Cases#

Content Personalization: Tailor content delivery based on user geography. When a user visits your site, use their IP to determine their location with MaxMind GeoIP2, and serve localized content or redirect to a region-specific page using Pipedream's HTTP/S webhook triggers and actions.
Security Monitoring: Enhance security by tracking the source of traffic or login attempts. Set up a workflow that uses the MaxMind GeoIP2 API to map the IP addresses from your authentication logs. With this info, trigger alerts or actions if the service detects access from unexpected or high-risk locations.
Traffic Analysis and Reporting: Generate real-time insights by correlating IP addresses with geographic data. Use MaxMind GeoIP2 to enrich event logs or analytics data with location info. Then, send the enriched data to other apps like Google Sheets or a database on Pipedream for easy visualization and reporting.

Authentication#

Name Slug: maxmind_geoip2

MaxMind GeoIP2 uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your MaxMind GeoIP2 account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to MaxMind GeoIP2 APIs in both code and no-code steps.
