I'm trying to get the user's IP for ratelimiting, but all request are coming from one ip even tho there's alot of users using it (all around the globe).

I'm using express.

I'm first checking for "x-real-ip" then "cf-connecting-ip" then req.ip

I have trust proxy as true

Is there any header that railway provides to get the connection ip?

X-Forwarded-For should contain what you need, the first IP there should be the user's IP address

heads up btw if you're using cloudflare then you need to use Cloudflare's IP forwarding header
