Hello,

I would like to find out the location of my survey respondents using their IP addresses. However, the survey already ran on Qualtrics. I tracked the IP addresses but did not enter specific fields for their location. Is it possible after the data collection for Qualtrics to convert the information from the IP addresses into the location?

Thank you very much in advance.

@anleta The IP location was already converted to LocationLatitude and LocationLongitude. You can see it in your data

Hope it helps

Thank you very much! I found the information. Is there anyway to translate that information into information about the country and city directly?

@anleta ,

You’ll need to use a reverse geocoding api. If you do a internet search you will find a number of them.

@anleta : you can use external IP-to-location services or APIs to accomplish this. You would typically need to export the IP addresses from your Qualtrics data and then use a geolocation service to match each IP address to a location (city, country, etc.).
