Auto Devops Unable to access Client IP of the user

Upon using Auto Devops for an app in production we've run into an issue, there is no way to configure auto devops to allow us to access client or user IP addresses as our auto devops deployed app only given the IP address of the load balancer, not the user.
After going through the documentation and contacting support this seems to be something that isn't included in Auto Devops.
Many applications require IP logging for various functionality, in our example we require it for a proprietary geo-targeting system which requires our users IP addresses to function correctly.
I have throughly read the Auto Devops documentation and looked for a solution and have found nothing, maybe this is something to consider adding as a configuration option, a simple and somewhat quick fix to this may be simply adding a header to the load balancer containing the client IP.
I have tried the following common HTTP forwarding headers to no avail with Auto Devops
HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR
HTTP_X_REAL_IP
