Technical Q&A

Hi,

I’m trying to find an API that allow me to get the user’s country code. tried ipdata.co but can’t get the geo data,

example javascript doesn’t work. Here is the original code from ipdata.co + removed my API key

suspect something wrong with the script or shopify is blocking the access. Any help is appreciated.

keep getting this error message on online javascript compiler:

"42:1 Uncaught ReferenceError: $ is not defined"

// Getting the country code from the user's IP
$.get("https://api.ipdata.co?api-key=mykey", function (response) {
  if (response.country_code == 'UK') {
    window.location.href = "https://uk.store.ipdata.co";
    } else if (response.country_code == 'DE') {
    window.location.href = "https://de.store.ipdata.co";
    } else if (response.country_code == 'AU') {
    window.location.href = "https://au.store.ipdata.co";
    }
}, "jsonp");
