# Removal of the "ip" Field from Operator and Supplier API

**Effective from:** 14 August 2025

***

### What’s changing?

We are removing the `ip` field from the request payload of the following API endpoints:

* [`POST /operator/generic/v2/game/url`](/developer-docs/operator-api-reference/games-api.md#get-a-game-url) (**Operator** **API**)
* [`POST /game/url`](/developer-docs/supplier-api-reference/games-api.md#get-a-game-url) (**Supplier** **API**)

From 14 August 2025, this field will no longer processed in API requests.

### Why is it changing?

As part of our efforts to ensure compliance with evolving regulatory standards and to uphold best practices in data privacy, we are removing this field from both our APIs and associated documentation.

### Impact

* We **strongly recommend** that all operators and suppliers **remove the `ip` parameter** from their requests to reflect the current specification and avoid transmitting unnecessary data.
* This change is **backwards compatible**: any requests still containing the `ip` field will not cause errors, but the value will be ignored or altered to `0.0.0.0` by our systems.
* No other fields or behaviours within these endpoints are affected.

If you have any questions about this change or need support updating your integration, please reach out to your Hub88 account manager or the technical support team.
