How to Set Up and Use IP Geolocation
The ipgeolocation-io-mcp server connects AI assistants to the AbstractAPI (and ipgeolocation.io) geolocation service, enabling natural language queries that retrieve detailed geographic information about any IP address, including country, city, timezone, currency, and connection type. It is distributed as an npm package and requires an API key from ipgeolocation.io to function. Network administrators, fraud analysts, and developers who need to enrich IP address data within AI conversations can use this server to get structured geolocation responses without writing API calls manually.
Prerequisites
- Node.js 16 or higher installed
- An ipgeolocation.io account with an API key (free tier available at ipgeolocation.io)
- An MCP-compatible client such as Claude Desktop or Claude Code
Sign up for an ipgeolocation.io API key
Visit https://ipgeolocation.io and create a free account. After signing up, copy your API key from the dashboard. The free tier allows up to 1,000 requests per day.
Test the package with npx
Verify the package is accessible via npx. The server will start in STDIO mode and exit immediately without an MCP client — this is expected.
npx -y ipgeolocation-io-mcpAdd the server to your MCP client configuration
Add the server entry to claude_desktop_config.json with your ipgeolocation.io API key in the env block.
{
"mcpServers": {
"ip-geolocation": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "ipgeolocation-io-mcp"],
"env": {
"IPGEOLOCATION_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
}
}
}
}Restart your MCP client
Restart Claude Desktop or reload MCP servers in your client to discover the ip-geolocation server and its tools.

}Prompts to try
Example prompts for querying IP geolocation data through the MCP server.
- "Where is the IP address 185.220.101.34 located?"
- "What country and timezone is 8.8.4.4 in?"
- "Look up the currency and language for the region where 203.0.113.45 is registered"
- "Is 192.168.1.1 a valid public IP, and if so where is it geographically?"
- "Get detailed connection info for IP 1.1.1.1 including ISP and organization name"Troubleshooting IP Geolocation
Server returns '401 Unauthorized' for every IP lookup
Verify that the IPGEOLOCATION_API_KEY environment variable is correctly set in your MCP config and that the key matches the one shown in your ipgeolocation.io dashboard. Check that there are no extra spaces or newline characters around the key value.
npx fails with ENOTFOUND or package not found
Clear the npx cache with 'npx clear-npx-cache' and retry. Verify your internet connection and that the package name 'ipgeolocation-io-mcp' is spelled correctly in the args array.
Daily request limit exceeded
The free tier of ipgeolocation.io allows 1,000 requests per day. Upgrade to a paid plan at ipgeolocation.io/pricing for higher limits, or reduce usage by caching results at the application level.
