I have my api deployed to an Azure Appplication service. The audit table is working just fine but it is not capturing ClientIpAddress it always shows the same IP. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

172.16.1.1is a private IP address.
You can configure it as a known proxy inapp.UseForwardedHeaders(...)beforeapp.UseAuthentication().
public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IWebHostEnvironment env, ILoggerFactory loggerFactory) { ... var forwardedHeadersOptions = new ForwardedHeadersOptions // Add this { // Add this ForwardedHeaders = ForwardedHeaders.XForwardedFor | ForwardedHeaders.XForwardedProto // Add this }; // Add this forwardedHeadersOptions.KnownProxies.Add(IPAddress.Parse("::ffff:172.16.1.1")); // Add this app.UseForwardedHeaders(forwardedHeadersOptions); // Add this app.UseAuthentication(); ... }

I just told you exactly how and even provided a code sample that you can copy and paste directly into your ASP .NET Zero solution.
