Does this something different than
https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/dnsip
Looks like https://api.ipify.org?format=json might be down as well. I moved my resource to https://www.l2.io/ip.json for now.
Alternatively, heres’s a more reliable resource from a major internet infrastructure provider which will likely have a high degree of availability: radar.cloudflare.com/ip
API endpoint: https://ipv4-check-perf.radar.cloudflare.com/api/info
Sensor should look like:
sensor:
- platform: rest
scan_interval: 3600
name: External IP
unique_id: external_ip
resource: https://ipv4-check-perf.radar.cloudflare.com/api/info
value_template: "{{ value_json.ip_address }}"
