You can now provide an IP address when creating a subscriber. This will be used to determine the subscriber's location and validate their legitimacy (especially useful for folks submitting requests from a form that doesn't have CAPTCHA protection or similar anti-spam measures).

import requests

url = "https://api.buttondown.com/v1/subscribers"
headers = {
  "Authorization": "Token $BUTTONDOWN_API_KEY"
}
data = {
  "email_address": "telemachus@buttondown.email",
  "ip_address": "127.0.0.1"
}

response = requests.request("POST", url, headers=headers, json=data)
print(response.text)
