Get Server Port

Development Programming & Scripting Blueprint

I could not find anything related to this.
When I start dedicated server, the server is listening on port 7777, next on 7778 etc.
So, how to get server port in UE4?

Hello,
It seems that you can’t do that in blueprints (yet ?..) but you can in c++. not sure about best solution. Different threads in forum and answerhub like

seeems mainly that you have to use GetWorld()->GetAddressURL().

@ thanks for answer. Already saw that. However, I am mostly working in Blueprints.
Is there any way to expose it to BP, if no how to call that function in C++ so I can get data (server port)?

FString UMyBlueprintFunctionLibrary::GetPortNumber(AGameModeBase* CurrentGameMode)

FString PortNumber;
PortNumber = FString::FromInt(CurrentGameMode->GetWorld()->URL.Port);
return PortNumber;
}
