    For Ashford-A [ason], we are suppose to be passing unique ip addresses for the lead_ip_address field.
    The vendors said that they ARE passing unique ip addresses, but LX shows that each vendor is passing the same ip address. I attached the file from LX. Vendor TCD2 only shows: 184.106.42.218
    and vendor JJ01 only shows: 192.145.232.42.

    Can you check that nothing is hardcoded on the backend? The vendors said they are passing unique ip addresses for each lead.

    The only thing hardcoded on the backend is the function that grabs the IP Address of the sender.

    They are probably sending all the leads from the same place (say, a call center) and possibly trying to send a fake IP Address on the lead string; but when it hits the backend code, the IP Address is replaced by the actual call center code.

    I can disable the code that grabs the IP Address, but then it will be passed as blank if no value is manually entered on the vendor’s part.

    I removed the section that grabs the IP address for vendors. We will only grab the IP address if it comes from TCD.

    Have the vendors test again?

    That worked! Ip Addresses are coming in unique now — thanks 🙂
