Cloudflare Integration

Prerequisites

• A Cloudflare account with at least one domain
• API token with the following permissions:
  • Zone:Read (to list domains)
  • DNS:Read (to read DNS records)

Creating an API Token

1. Log in to Cloudflare

   Visit Cloudflare's API Tokens page and log in to your account.

2. Create a new token

   Click the "Create Token" button and select "Create Custom Token".

   
   
3. Configure permissions

   Set up the following permissions:

   • Zone - Zone - Read
   • Zone - DNS - Read
   
4. Set token name and expiration

   Give your token a descriptive name (e.g., "DNS Check Integration") and optionally set an expiration date.

5. Create token

   Click "Create Token" and copy the token value. Make sure to save it somewhere safe - you won't be able to see it again!

Connecting to DNS Check

1. Add Cloudflare integration

   In DNS Check, go to Settings > Integrations and click "Add Cloudflare".

2. Enter API token

   Paste your Cloudflare API token and click "Connect".

3. Select domains

   Choose which domains you want to monitor. DNS Check will automatically detect all available domains in your account.

Monitoring DNS Records

Once connected, DNS Check will:

• Automatically detect all DNS records for your selected domains
• Monitor for any changes to these records
• Alert you when changes are detected
• Keep a history of all changes for future reference

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

• "Unable to list zones"

  This usually means the API token doesn't have the correct Zone:Read permissions. Double-check the token permissions in Cloudflare.

• "Unable to fetch DNS records"

  Verify that the API token has DNS:Read permissions for the zones you're trying to monitor.
