Overview
This node performs an IP address lookup to identify the company and detailed context behind a given IP address. It is useful for marketing, sales, and lead generation scenarios where enriching data about visitors or leads based on their IP address is needed. For example, it can be used to identify companies visiting a website or to enrich CRM data with company information derived from IP addresses.
Use Case Examples
- Lookup company information for an IP address obtained from web traffic logs.
- Enrich lead data by identifying the company behind an IP address captured in a form submission.

Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for LeadBoxer API authentication.
Troubleshooting
- Common issues include invalid or missing IP address input, resulting in errors or empty responses.
- SSL certificate validation errors can occur if the server's SSL certificate is not trusted; this can be bypassed by enabling the 'Ignore SSL Issues' option, but it reduces security.
- Timeout errors may occur if the server is slow to respond; increasing the timeout setting can help.
- Proxy misconfiguration can cause request failures; ensure proxy settings are correct if used.
