Using Cloudflare without Global API Key

[nebulon]

Do you get any more specific error codes/messages while trying to add a domain with such a key?

[iamthefij]

@nebulon not really. It just said it cannot connect.

[girish]

@iamthefij Do those API keys start with v1.0- ? If so, per the docs, we have to set a special header variable unlike the global API key (https://api.cloudflare.com/#getting-started-requests)

[girish]

4.4 has support for API tokens - https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/box/commit/b0420889adac8de3ae9edf9f2bd1e96c7c9c1191

Awesome! Thanks Girish!

Do you have a documentation/blog post about the Cloudflare API setup for Cloudron?
This is my settings for now, but I'm not sure if I miss something. My instance working alright with the following settings, but if you know the better/secure/correct settings, could you let me know?

[girish]

Configuration looks correct. Ideally, Cloudron does not require access to all zones but without it we have to make the user enter the zone id which is kinda hard to find in the cloudflare UI.

Thank you for having a look, @girish !

Thank for this screenshot
it's work like a charm

I wish we can remove the "All zones" setting but afaict there is no way to get the zone id (which is required by the API) without listing the zones. I guess one alternative is to let users the zone id in the DNS setup form but this appears complicated.

I don't know if something change from Cloudflare and/or Cloudron side around this but I was able to limit the API to a specific zone without issue

and then to 3 specific zone and one specific IP

It's still working with these only this Permission

1. Zone.DNS Edit

@JOduMonT thanks for the heads up. Looks like this is something new in Cloudflare, will test it out and update docs accordingly.

Can confirm that all zones access is not required in cloudflare anymore. Will update docs.

I had to reinstall my Cloudflare than with these setting at Cloudflare

the detail of this Token

I had zero issue to install and configure my 5 domains

the only right my Cloudron API have is to
Edit specific Zone from a specific IP

I just added a domain than, just to be more concise
we have to specify the Zone Name

unless it will not work with only Zone -> DNS -> Edit permissions at Cloudflare
