# Get Your Public IP Address
If you're trying to figure out what your current public IP address is, there is
a server you can ask. It is a server running at `https://ifconfig.me`.
You can visit that URL in your browser to find your IP address and some other
User Agent/Request details. The site also mentions several `cURL` commands you
can run to get these details in your terminal.
```bash
$ curl ifconfig.me
```
That will respond with just your public IP address. It is equivalent to curling
`ifconfig.me/ip`.
There are other options as well, such as curling for a JSON response of all the
data attributes.
```bash
$ curl ifconfig.me/all.json
```
See [ifconfig.me](https://ifconfig.me) for more details.
