Duplicate requests sent from Nextjs API route - originating from Netlify?

Netlify site ID: c55adf9b-6b49-486e-bc9a-ee7f9eaf6f53

I’ve been looking at the logs for my backend to test my request logging and rate limiting. On the front-end we use Nextjs and have setup API routes that make calls to our back-end. On the back-end I use the x-forwarded-for headers to retrieve the IP address of each request. In my logs I see my IP address when I make requests, however I also noticed a lot of duplicate requests that were originating from a different IP address that was traced back to an AWS datacenter. I’m assuming these were also from Netlify. These requests contained my userID and so probably also contained my bearer token as well. I’m just wondering whether this is expected behaviour, or out of the ordinary? At times I’ll get ~5 duplicate requests for each request I make.

Any way we can reproduce this behaviour?

Beyond replicating my setup in its entirety I’m not certain. I can provide screenshots and more info privately if that could help.

sure you can just send a private PM to support.
