Context:

for PPC related reasons, we are using our website to serve landing pages. I still use pardot for landing page creation, our website has reverse proxy capabilities so I am serving pages from my website domain. 

 

Example:

Reverse Proxy URL: https://www.grmdocumentmanagement.com/best-document-storage-solution/

Pardot URL: https://info.grmdocumentmanagement.com/l/126821/2023-07-07/4t1nk1

 

The problem:

When i look at the IP of the viewer in pardot, i get my website IP and not the real user IP. Why do i need to know what the ip is? because i want to be more vigilant in filtering spam views and use my ways to mark irrelevant form fills and page views. I cannot do this if i don't have the real ip of the person. 

 

My Question:

is there a way to make pardot take the header x-forwarded-for or any other header that is an industry standard and consider it as the end user IP. 

 

if not - how can i set the user IP in any other way?

 

TIA!

    yeah both a redirect or the use of the original IP is not ideal for me. x-forwareded-for is an industry standard so i am surprised its not being used.
