Hi @john john Pter ,Good days.

Unfortunately, SharePoint Online does not include any built‐in functionality to capture the client’s IP address when someone submits a list form. Power Apps also does not provide an OOTB function to return the IP. However, you can achieve your requirement by creating a custom solution (via a PCF control) that retrieves the IP address and writes it to the list.

Here is a post for your reference:

Hope it helps you.
