Cloudflare Docs
Log in

Once youcreate your API token, all API requests are authorized in the same way. Cloudflare uses theRFC standardAuthorization: Bearer <API_TOKEN> interface. An example request is shown below.

Terminal window
curl"https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/zones/$ZONE_ID"\
--header"Authorization: Bearer YQSn-xWAQiiEh9qM58wZNnyQS7FUdoqGIUAbrh7T"

Never send or store your API token secret in plaintext. Also be sure not to check it into code repositories, especially public ones.

Consider definingenvironment variables for the zone or account ID, as well as for authentication credentials (for example, the API token).

To format JSON output for readability in the command line, you can use a tool likejq, a command-line JSON processor. For more information on obtaining and installingjq, refer toDownload jq.

The following example will format the curl JSON output usingjq:

Terminal window
curl"https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/zones/$ZONE_ID"\
--header"Authorization: Bearer$CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN"|jq.

Using Cloudflare's APIs

Every Cloudflare API element is fixed to a version number. The latest version is Version 4. The stable base URL for all Version 4 HTTPS endpoints is:https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/

For specific guidance on making API calls, refer to the following resources:

Query parameters

Several Cloudflare endpoints have optional query parameters to filter incoming results, such asList Zones.

When adding those query parameters, make sure you enclose the URL in double quotes"" (just like the header values), or the API call might error.

Terminal window
curl"https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/zones?account.id=$ACCOUNT_ID"\
--header"Authorization: Bearer$CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN"

You can enclose strings using either single quotes ('') or double quotes (""). However, using single quotes prevents variable substitution in shells likebash. In the previous example, this would mean that the$ACCOUNT_ID and$CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKENenvironment variables would not be replaced with their values.

Pagination

Sometimes there will be too many results to display via the default page size, for example you might receive the following:

"count": 1,
"page": 1,
"per_page": 20,
"total_count": 200,

Two query parameter options exist, which can be combined to paginate across the results.

  • page=x enables you to select a specific page.
  • per_page=xx enables you to adjust the number of results displayed on a page. If you select too many, you may get a timeout.

An example might behttps://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/zones/$ZONE_ID/dns_records?per_page=100&page=2.

Other options are:

  • order: Select the attribute to order by.
  • direction: EitherASC (ascending order) orDESC (descending order).

The available options will be listed at the end of theresult_info of all endpoints in theAPI documentation.

Making API calls on Windows

Recent versions of Windows 10 and 11already include the curl tool used in the developer documentation's API examples. If you are using a different Windows version, refer toWindows downloads in the curl website for more information on obtaining and installing this tool.

Using a Command Prompt window

To use the Cloudflare API with curl on a Command Prompt window, you must use double quotes (") as string delimiters.

A typicalPATCH request will be similar to the following:

C:\>curl --request PATCH "https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/user/invites/{id}" --header "X-Auth-Email: <EMAIL>" --header "X-Auth-Key: <API_KEY>" --data "{""status"": ""accepted""}"

To escape a double quote character in a request body (for example, a body specified with-d or--data in aPOST/PATCH request), prepend it with another double quote (") or a backslash (\) character.

To break a single command in two or more lines, use^ as the line continuation character at the end of a line:

C:\>curl --request PATCH ^
"https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/user/invites/{id}" ^
--header "X-Auth-Email: <EMAIL>" ^
--header "X-Auth-Key: <API_KEY>" ^
--data "{""status"": ""accepted""}"

Using PowerShell

PowerShell has specific cmdlets (Invoke-RestMethod andConvertFrom-Json) for making REST API calls and handling JSON responses. The syntax for these cmdlets is different from the curl examples provided in the developer documentation.

The following example uses theInvoke-RestMethod cmdlet:

PowerShell
Invoke-RestMethod-URI"https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/zones/$Env:ZONE_ID/ssl/certificate_packs?ssl_status=all"-Method'GET'-Headers@{'X-Auth-Email'=$Env:CLOUDFLARE_EMAIL;'X-Auth-Key'=$Env:CLOUDFLARE_API_KEY}
result : {@{id=78411cfa-5727-4dc1-8d4a-773d01f17c7c; type=universal; hosts=System.Object[];
primary_certificate=c173c8a1-9724-4e96-a748-2c4494186098; status=active; certificates=System.Object[];
created_on=2022-12-09T23:11:06.010263Z; validity_days=90; validation_method=txt;
certificate_authority=lets_encrypt}}
result_info : @{page=1; per_page=20; total_pages=1; count=1; total_count=1}
success : True
errors : {}
messages : {}

The command assumes that the environment variablesZONE_ID,CLOUDFLARE_EMAIL, andCLOUDFLARE_API_KEY have been previously defined. For more information, refer toEnvironment variables.

By default, the output will only contain the first level of the JSON object hierarchy (in the above example, the content of objects such ashosts andcertificates is not shown). To show additional levels and format the output like thejq tool, you can use theConvertFrom-Json cmdlet specifying the desired maximum depth (by default,2):

PowerShell
Invoke-RestMethod-URI"https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/zones/$Env:ZONE_ID/ssl/certificate_packs?ssl_status=all"-Method'GET'-Headers@{'X-Auth-Email'=$Env:CLOUDFLARE_EMAIL;'X-Auth-Key'=$Env:CLOUDFLARE_API_KEY}|ConvertTo-Json-Depth5
{
"result":[
{
"id":"78411cfa-5727-4dc1-8d4a-773d01f17c7c",
"type":"universal",
"hosts":["*.example.com","example.com"],
"primary_certificate":"c173c8a1-9724-4e96-a748-2c4494186098",
"status":"active",
"certificates":[
{
"id":"c173c8a1-9724-4e96-a748-2c4494186098",
"hosts":["*.example.com","example.com"],
"issuer":"LetsEncrypt",
"signature":"ECDSAWithSHA384",
"status":"active",
"bundle_method":"ubiquitous",
"zone_id":"<ZONE_ID>",
"uploaded_on":"2023-02-02T11:20:25.403338Z",
"modified_on":"2022-12-08T00:26:15.577555Z",
"expires_on":"2023-03-07T23:26:12.000000Z",
"priority":null
}
],
"created_on":"2022-12-09T23:11:06.010263Z",
"validity_days":90,
"validation_method":"txt",
"certificate_authority":"lets_encrypt"
}
]
// (...)
}

You can also use the curl tool in PowerShell. However, in PowerShellcurl is an alias to theInvoke-WebRequest cmdlet, which supports a different syntax from the usual curl tool. To use curl, entercurl.exe instead.

A typicalPATCH request with curl will be similar to the following:

PowerShell
curl.exe--request PATCH"https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/user/invites/{id}"--header"Authorization: Bearer$Env:CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN"--data'{\"status\": \"accepted\"}'

To escape a double quote (") character in a request body (specified with-d or--data), prepend it with another double quote (") or a backslash (\). You must escape double quotes even when using single quotes (') as string delimiters.

To break a single command in two or more lines, use a backtick (`) character as the line continuation character at the end of a line:

PowerShell
curl.exe--request PATCH`
"https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/user/invites/{id}"`
--header"X-Auth-Email:$Env:CLOUDFLARE_EMAIL"`
--header"X-Auth-Key:$Env:CLOUDFLARE_API_KEY"`
--data'{\"status\": \"accepted\"}'

Environment variables

You can define environment variables for values that repeat between commands, such as the zone or account ID. The lifetime of an environment variable can be the current shell session, all future sessions of the current user, or even all future sessions of all users on the machine you are defining them.

You can also use environment variables for keeping authentication credentials (API token, API key, and email) and reusing them in different commands. However, make sure you define these values in the smallest possible scope (either the current shell session only or all new sessions for the current user).

The procedure for setting and referencing environment variables depends on your platform and shell.

Define an environment variable

To define aZONE_ID environment variable for the current shell session, run the following command:

Terminal window
exportZONE_ID='f2ea6707005a4da1af1b431202e96ac5'

To define the variable for all new shell sessions for the current user, add the command above at the end of your shell configuration file (for example,~/.bashrc for thebash shell and~/.zshrc for thezsh shell).

Reference an environment variable

When referencing an environment variable in a command, add a$ prefix to the variable name (for example,$ZONE_ID). Make sure that the full string referencing the variable is either unquoted (if it does not contain spaces) or enclosed in double quotes ("").

For example:

Terminal window
curl"https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/zones/$ZONE_ID"\
--header"Authorization: Bearer$CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN"
