Log the IP address of the endpoint that is being called by an API healthcheck

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. A domain was resolving to a cloud provider's service through 2 IPs, one of these IPs was not responding causing the checks to fail but the other IP did respond so overall we were seeing intermittent check failures but the service was healthy and up all the time.

Describe the solution you'd like If the api check can log which IP it was calling when the domain was resolved, it would help us quickly identify that there is a bad IP

Describe alternatives you've considered We did the DNS lookups to find the IPs and made requests ourselves to see this behaviour but that was only when we realised that this might be the cause

Additional context Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.
