Hi, I guess it's due to the pod status is not running, the network is creating and ip for this pod is not ready.
When the pod status is running, which means a certain ip has been assigned to the pod, meanwhile it also has been added to the pod status section and stored in etcd. After that you can run your code to get the pod ip.
