Nginx reverse proxy and IP's from the internet

Configuration
1

I have a failed login in homeassistant notifications, I know that was me when I was out and using my smartphone on a 4g network.
However, it says the request came from 127.0.0.1, which isn’t the case but since I use a reverse proxy config with nginx I can see what happened there.
Is there a way to config nginx/hass to take the ip for which the request was forwarded for?

You need to make sure the proxy is passing through ‘header_upstream X-Forwarded-For’

and HA has the following in the config,

http:
  use_x_forwarded_for: true
  trusted_proxies:
    - 127.0.0.1

Yes, that works!
