Overview#
Harness the power of Cloudflare within Pipedream's scalable platform to automate and optimize your web operations. The Cloudflare API enables you to programmatically control countless aspects of your web presence, from security settings and firewall rules to traffic and DNS management. By integrating this with Pipedream, you can create custom workflows that react to specific triggers, manipulate Cloudflare configurations on-the-fly, and connect to countless other services for a seamless automation experience.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({

}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {

Example Use Cases#
Automate DNS Updates: When a new domain is added to your system via a webhook from your domain registration service, Pipedream can catch this event and automatically create or update DNS records in Cloudflare, keeping your domain configurations in sync without manual intervention.
Dynamic Content Caching Rules: Connect Cloudflare with a CMS like WordPress. Whenever a new post is published or updated, trigger a Pipedream workflow that purges the Cloudflare cache for the specific URL or path, ensuring that visitors get the most up-to-date content.
Security Alerts and Mitigation: Integrate Cloudflare with Slack using Pipedream to monitor security events. When Cloudflare identifies a potential security threat, a Pipedream workflow can send an alert to a designated Slack channel and automatically apply pre-defined firewall rules or rate-limiting to mitigate the issue.
