I have tried request.headers['X-Real-IP'] and request.headers['X-Forwarded-For'] as per some other forum posts but I only get the address for some random aws server in virginia? Any guidance would be appreciated.

Trying to get client ip only returns an AWS ip for some reason?
That sounds very strange -- what's the IP address that you're getting?

That's the server where your website is running. Are you making requests to your website from inside its own code, perhaps?
