2025-03-21

API deprecations

Zone Setting: cname_flattening

Deprecation date: March 21, 2025

The Zone Settings API endpoints for managing zone-level CNAME flattening are deprecated. Instead, use the Show DNS Settings and Update DNS Settings endpoints to manage this setting.

Changes via the old endpoints will be reflected in the new ones, and vice versa, so there is no need to migrate existing zones. However, future API calls must use DNS Settings instead of the Zone Settings endpoints.

Note that, with the deprecated zone setting, values "off" and "apex" have the same behavior. These are represented as {"flatten_all_cnames": false} in the new API. The zone setting "on" corresponds to {"flatten_all_cnames": true} in the new API.

Affected APIs:

  • GET /zones/:zone_id/settings
  • PATCH /zones/:zone_id/settings

Deprecated APIs:

  • GET /zones/:zone_id/settings/cname_flattening
  • PATCH /zones/:zone_id/settings/cname_flattening

2025-03-14

API deprecations

Account Settings: default_nameservers and use_account_custom_ns_by_default

Deprecation date: March 14, 2025

The fields "default_nameservers" and "use_account_custom_ns_by_default" within the "settings" object of accounts are deprecated. Instead, use the Show DNS Settings and Update DNS Settings endpoints to manage this setting. This setting is available in the new API as .zone_defaults.nameservers.type, with allowed values "cloudflare.standard", "cloudflare.standard.random", "custom.account" and "custom.tenant".

Changes via the old endpoints will be reflected in the new ones, and vice versa, so there is no need to migrate existing zones. However, future API calls must use DNS Settings instead of the Accounts endpoints.

Affected APIs:

  • GET /accounts
  • POST /accounts
  • GET /accounts/:account_id
  • PUT /accounts/:account_id

2024-11-30

API deprecations

Zone information in individual DNS records

Deprecation date: November 30, 2024

Currently, each individual DNS record returned by the API contains information about the zone it is on, specifically the zone ID and name.

{
  "result": [
    {
      // ...
      "zone_id": "ab922473c42f4e50819d7c1c9b81b16b",
      "zone_name": "example.com"
    }
  ],
  // ...
}

This information is redundant because both affected API routes are already within the zone scope. In particular, the zone ID will already be known to any user of these routes because it appears in the URL. The zone name can be retrieved by making a GET request to /zones/:zone_id if it is necessary.

After November 30th, 2024, Cloudflare will stop including the zone_id and zone_name fields on individual DNS records in API responses. These fields are currently ignored when sent to the API as part of a request body, so no changes to request bodies are required.

Modified API:

  • GET /zones/:zone_id/dns_records
  • POST /zones/:zone_id/dns_records
  • GET /zones/:zone_id/dns_records/:dns_record_id
  • PATCH /zones/:zone_id/dns_records/:dns_record_id
  • PUT /zones/:zone_id/dns_records/:dns_record_id

2024-11-07

Cache

Shard Cache by cache key

For custom cache keys, enterprise customers can now shard their cache using up to three values for previously restricted headers accept*, referer, and user-agent. Sharding the cache can improve cache HIT ratio and performance. However, overly sharding your cache, can have the opposite effect.

Cache

Versioning

Cache now supports versioned environments allowing customers to stage configurations and purge staged environments. Note that Cache Reserve is only supported for your production environment.

2024-11-01

DLP

Send entire HTTP requests to a Logpush destination

In addition to logging the payload from HTTP requests that matched a DLP policy in Cloudflare Logs, Enterprise users can now configure a Logpush job to send the entire HTTP request that triggered a DLP match to a storage destination. This allows long-term storage of full requests for use in forensic investigation.

2024-10-30

Hyperdrive

New Hyperdrive configurations to private databases using Tunnels are validated before creation

When creating a new Hyperdrive configuration to a private database using Tunnels, Hyperdrive will verify that it can connect to the database to ensure that your Tunnel and Access application have been properly configured. This makes it easier to debug connectivity issues.

Refer to documentation on connecting to private databases for more information.

DNS Records: Error chains for DNS validation errors

Deprecation date: October 1, 2024

Cloudflare is making a minor change to the representation of certain errors when creating DNS records. Currently, when the DNS record to be created is invalid, an error similar to the following may be returned:

{
  "result": null,
  "success": false,
  "errors": [
    {
      "code": 1004,
      "message": "DNS Validation Error",
      "error_chain": [
        {
          "code": 9999,
          "message": "This is an example."
        }
      ]
    }
  ],
  "messages": []
}

After October 1st, 2024, the error_chain will be omitted, returning the root cause directly without wrapping it in another "DNS Validation Error" error:

{
  "result": null,
  "success": false,
  "errors": [
    {
      "code": 9999,
      "message": "This is an example."
    }
  ],
  "messages": []
}

Zero Trust WARP Client

WARP client for Linux (version 2024.6.497.0)

A new GA release for the Linux WARP client is now available in the package repository. This release includes some exciting new features. It also includes additional fixes and minor improvements.

New features:

  • The WARP client now supports operation on Ubuntu 24.04.
  • Admins can now elect to have ZT WARP clients connect using the MASQUE protocol; this setting is in Device Profiles. Note: before MASQUE can be used, the global setting for Override local interface IP must be enabled. For more detail, refer to Device tunnel protocol. This feature will be rolled out to customers in stages over approximately the next month.
  • The Device Posture client certificate check has been substantially enhanced. The primary enhancement is the ability to check for client certificates that have unique common names, made unique by the inclusion of the device serial number or host name (for example, CN = 123456.mycompany, where 123456 is the device serial number).
  • TCP MSS clamping is now used where necessary to meet the MTU requirements of the tunnel interface. This will be especially helpful in Docker use cases.

Warning:

  • Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04 are not supported by this version of the client.
  • This is the last GA release that will be supporting older, deprecated warp-cli commands. There are two methods to identify these commands. One, when used in this release, the command will work but will also return a deprecation warning. And two, the deprecated commands do not appear in the output of warp-cli -h.

Known issues:

  • There are certain known limitations preventing the use of the MASQUE tunnel protocol in certain scenarios. Do not use the MASQUE tunnel protocol if:
    • A Magic WAN integration is on the account and does not have the latest packet flow path for WARP traffic. To check the migration status, contact your account team.
    • Your account has Regional Services enabled.
  • The Linux client GUI does not yet support all GUI features found in the Windows and macOS clients. Future releases of the Linux client will be adding these GUI features.
  • The Zero Trust team name is not visible in the GUI if you upgraded from the previous GA release using an MDM tool.
  • Sometimes the WARP icon will remain gray (disconnected state) while in dark mode.

GCP on-ramps

Magic Cloud Networking supports Google Cloud Platform.

Vectorize

Vectorize v1 is deprecated

With the new Vectorize storage engine, which supports substantially larger indexes (up to 5 million vector dimensions) and reduced query latencies, we are deprecating the original "legacy" (v1) storage subsystem.

To continue interacting with legacy (v1) indexes in wrangler versions after 3.71.0, pass the --deprecated-v1 flag.

For example: 'wrangler vectorize --deprecated-v1' flag to create, get, list, delete and insert vectors into legacy Vectorize v1 indexes. There is no currently no ability to migrate existing indexes from v1 to v2. Existing Workers querying or clients to use the REST API against legacy Vectorize indexes will continue to function.

Vectorize

Vectorize v2 in public beta

Vectorize now has a new underlying storage subsystem (Vectorize v2) that supports significantly larger indexes, improved query latency, and changes to metadata filtering.

Specifically:

  • Indexes can now support up to 5 million vector dimensions each, up from 200,000 per index.
  • Metadata filtering now requires explicitly defining the metadata properties that will be filtered on.
  • Reduced query latency: queries will now return faster and with lower-latency.
  • You can now return up to 100 results (topK), up from the previous limit of 20.

Workers


  • When using the nodejs_compat_v2 compatibility flag, the setImmediate(fn) API from Node.js is now available at the global scope.
  • The internal_writable_stream_abort_clears_queue compatibility flag will ensure that certain WritableStream abort() operations are handled immediately rather than lazily, ensuring that the stream is appropriately aborted when the consumer of the stream is no longer active.

Zero Trust WARP Client

WARP client for macOS (version 2024.6.474.0)

A new GA release for the macOS WARP client is now available in the App Center. This release contains fixes to improve the client; no new features are included.

Notable updates:

  • Fixed an issue which caused alternate network detection to fail if the beacon host was using TLS 1.2 without TLS Extended Master Secret (EMS) enabled.
  • Improved the stability of device profile switching based on alternate network detection.

Known issues:

  • If a user has an MDM file configured to support multiple profiles (for the switch configurations feature), and then changes to an MDM file configured for a single profile, the WARP client may not connect. The workaround is to use the warp-cli registration delete command to clear the registration, and then re-register the client.
  • There are certain known limitations preventing the use of the MASQUE tunnel protocol in certain scenarios. Do not use the MASQUE tunnel protocol if:
    • A Magic WAN integration is on the account and does not have the latest packet flow path for WARP traffic. Please check migration status with your account team.
    • Your account has Regional Services enabled.

New features:

  • Admins can now elect to have ZT WARP clients connect using the MASQUE protocol; this setting is in Device Profiles. Note: before MASQUE can be used, the global setting for Override local interface IP must be enabled. For more detail, refer to Device tunnel protocol. This feature will be rolled out to customers in stages over approximately the next month.
  • The Device Posture client certificate check has been substantially enhanced. The primary enhancement is the ability to check for client certificates that have unique common names, made unique by the inclusion of the device serial number or host name (for example, CN = 123456.mycompany, where 123456 is the device serial number).

Additional changes and improvements:

  • Fixed a known issue where the certificate was not always properly left behind in /Library/Application Support/Cloudflare/installed_cert.pem.
  • Fixed an issue where re-auth notifications were not cleared from the UI when the user switched configurations.
  • Fixed a macOS firewall rule that allowed all UDP traffic to go outside the tunnel. Relates to TunnelVision (CVE-2024-3661).
  • Fixed an issue that could cause the Cloudflare WARP menu bar application to disappear when switching configurations.

Warning:

  • This is the last GA release that will be supporting older, deprecated warp-cli commands. There are two methods to identify these commands. One, when used in this release, the command will work but will also return a deprecation warning. And two, the deprecated commands do not appear in the output of warp-cli -h.

The workaround is to use the warp-cli registration delete command to clear the registration, and then re-register the client.
  • There are certain known limitations preventing the use of the MASQUE tunnel protocol in certain scenarios. Do not use the MASQUE tunnel protocol if:

  • Added a new Unable to Connect message to the UI to help in troubleshooting.
  • The upgrade window now uses international date formats.
  • Made a change to ensure DEX tests are not running when the tunnel is not up due to the device going to or waking from sleep. This is specific to devices using the S3 power model.
  • Fixed a known issue where the certificate was not always properly left behind in %ProgramData%\Cloudflare\installed_cert.pem.
  • Fixed an issue where ICMPv6 Neighbor Solicitation messages were being incorrectly sent on the WARP tunnel.
  • Fixed an issue where a silent upgrade was causing certain files to be deleted if the target upgrade version is the same as the current version.

Warning:

  • This is the last GA release that will be supporting older, deprecated warp-cli commands. There are two methods to identify these commands. One, when used in this release, the command will work but will also return a deprecation warning. And two, the deprecated commands do not appear in the output of warp-cli -h.

Known issues:

  • If a user has an MDM file configured to support multiple profiles (for the switch configurations feature), and then changes to an MDM file configured for a single profile, the WARP client may not connect. The workaround is to use the warp-cli registration delete command to clear the registration, and then re-register the client.
  • There are certain known limitations preventing the use of the MASQUE tunnel protocol in certain scenarios. Do not use the MASQUE tunnel protocol if:
    • A Magic WAN integration is on the account and does not have the latest packet flow path for WARP traffic. Please check migration status with your account team.
    • Your account has Regional Services enabled.

Workers


  • Fixed a bug which caused Date.now() to return skewed results if called before the first I/O of the first request after a Worker first started up. The value returned would be offset backwards by the amount of CPU time spent starting the Worker (compiling and running global scope), making it seem like the first I/O (e.g. first fetch()) was slower than it really was. This skew had nothing to do with Spectre mitigations; it was simply a longstanding bug.

API deprecations

Name-Related Data Fields on SRV (DNS) Records

Deprecation date: May 31, 2024

The name of an SRV record normally consists of three parts: the service (e.g., _xmpp), the protocol (e.g., _tcp), and the base name (example.com).

The complete name would then be, e.g., _xmpp._tcp.example.com.

When interacting with DNS records through the API, SRV records contain both a full name as well as a data map containing the individual components of the name:

{
  "name": "_xmpp._tcp.example.com",
  "data": {
    "service": "_xmpp",
    "proto": "_tcp",
    "name": "example.com",
    ...
  },
  ...
}

We are deprecating the service, proto and name fields within the data map in favor of the name field outside the data map, which is the same name field that's used by all other record types.

Before the end of life date, please ensure that:

  • when reading SRV records, you use only the name outside of the data map and ignore service, proto and name within the data map if they exist; and
  • when writing SRV records, you set the name outside of the data map and do not set service, proto or name within the data map.

After the end of life date, the API will stop producing the service, proto and name data fields, and if any of them are received from a client, an error will be returned.

This deprecation does not affect other SRV data fields not mentioned above (priority, weight, port, target) or data fields for any other record type other than SRV.

Modified API:

  • GET /zones/:zone_id/dns_records
  • POST /zones/:zone_id/dns_records
  • GET /zones/:zone_id/dns_records/:dns_record_id
  • PATCH /zones/:zone_id/dns_records/:dns_record_id
  • PUT /zones/:zone_id/dns_records/:dns_record_id

API deprecations

Privacy Pass API Removal

Deprecation date: March 31, 2024

In 2017, Cloudflare announced support for Privacy Pass, a recent protocol to let users prove their identity across multiple sites anonymously without enabling tracking. The initial use case was to provide untraceable tokens to sites to vouch for users who might otherwise have been presented with a CAPTCHA challenge. In the time since this release, Privacy Pass has evolved both at the IETF and within Cloudflare. The version announced in 2017 is now considered legacy, and these legacy Privacy Pass tokens are no longer supported as an alternative to Cloudflare challenges. As has been discussed on our blog The end road for CAPTCHA, Cloudflare uses a variety of signals to infer if incoming traffic is likely automated. The (legacy) Privacy Pass zone setting is no longer meaningful to Cloudflare customers as Cloudflare now operates CAPTCHA free, and supports the latest Privacy Pass draft.

In September 2023, support for legacy Privacy Pass tokens as an alternative to Cloudflare Managed Challenge was removed. By the end of March 2024, the current public-facing API will be removed as well.

Deprecated API:

  • GET zones/:zone_identifier/settings/privacy_pass
  • POST zones/:zone_identifier/settings/privacy_pass

Review the documentation on pull-based consumers to configure HTTP-based pull.

Rules

New TLS fields in rule expressions

Customers can now use new fields cf.tls_client_hello_length (the length of the client hello message sent in a TLS handshake), cf.tls_client_random (the value of the 32-byte random value provided by the client in a TLS handshake), and cf.tls_client_extensions_sha1 (the SHA-1 fingerprint of TLS client extensions) in various products built on Ruleset Engine.

run() now returns a D1Result, including the result rows, matching its original behaviour prior to the change on 2024-02-13.

Future change to run() to return a D1ExecResult, as originally intended and documented, will be gated behind a compatibility date as to avoid breaking existing Workers relying on the way run() currently works.

D1

API changes to raw(), all() and run()

D1's raw(), all() and run() query statement methods have been updated to reflect their intended behaviour and improve compatibility with ORM libraries.

raw() now correctly returns results as an array of arrays, allowing the correct handling of duplicate column names (such as when joining tables), as compared to all(), which is unchanged and returns an array of objects. To include an array of column names in the results when using raw(), use raw({columnNames: true}).

run() no longer incorrectly returns a D1Result and instead returns a D1ExecResult as originally intended and documented.

This may be a breaking change for some applications that expected raw() to return an array of objects.

Refer to D1 client API to review D1's query methods, return types and TypeScript support in detail.

"meta": {
  "duration": 0.20472300052642825,

  "rows_read": 5000,

Note: If you have previously deployed a Worker with a D1 database binding with a version of wrangler prior to 3.5.0, you must upgrade to wrangler v3.5.0 first before you can edit your D1 database bindings in the Cloudflare dashboard. New Workers projects do not have this limitation.

Legacy D1 alpha users who had previously prefixed their database binding manually with __D1_BETA__ should remove this as part of this upgrade. Your Worker scripts should call your D1 database via env.BINDING_NAME only. Refer to the latest D1 getting started guide for best practices.

We recommend all D1 alpha users begin using wrangler 3.5.0 (or later) to benefit from improved TypeScript types and future D1 API improvements.

D1

New default storage subsystem

Databases created via the Cloudflare dashboard and Wrangler (as of v3.4.0) now use D1's new storage subsystem by default. The new backend can be 6 - 20x faster than D1's original alpha backend.

To understand which storage subsystem your database uses, run wrangler d1 info YOUR_DATABASE and inspect the version field in the output.

Databases with version: beta use the new storage backend and support the Time Travel API. Databases with version: alpha only use D1's older, legacy backend.

Time Travel

Time Travel is now available. Time Travel allows you to restore a D1 database back to any minute within the last 30 days (Workers Paid plan) or 7 days (Workers Free plan), at no additional cost for storage or restore operations.

Databases using D1's new storage subsystem can use Time Travel. Time Travel replaces the snapshot-based backups used for legacy alpha databases.

API deprecations

ChaCha20 TLS Cipher Removal

Deprecation date: July 1, 2023

Back in 2016, Cloudflare introduced support for ChaCha20-Poly1305 cipher suites for TLS 1.2. At the time, we introduced two variants of these new suites, the "standard" suites as defined by the IETF RFC 7905, and "draft" suites that followed an earlier draft of said specification. The draft suites were added for compatibility with some older Android devices that at the time did not yet support the proper ChaCha20-Poly1305 standard versions. This was in 2016, and in the meantime the standard ChaCha20-Poly1305 cipher suites have gained much wider adoption, to the point were traffic using the old suites has dropped significantly. Due to the current low usage and the non-standard nature of these cipher suites, we are now deprecating their support on the Cloudflare network.

This should not affect customer zones in any way, as clients that might currently use these cipher suites will be able to fallback to different ones. In addition, unlike the standard variants, these legacy cipher suites are not exposed directly through our API (e.g. through the TLS cipher suites preferences endpoint), and their deprecation will not affect customer configurations in any way.

As of July 1st, 2023, the ChaCha20-Poly1305 ciphers have been deprecated and are deemed End of Life by Cloudflare. If you have clients that currently rely on these ciphers, it is strongly recommended to upgrade them to newer, more secure ciphers. Be aware that these deprecated ciphers will be completely removed in the first quarter of 2024, and requests using them will start to fail. Take proactive measures to ensure a smooth transition and maintain the security of your systems.

API deprecations

Transfer-Encoding and Content-Length headers

Deprecation date: July 1, 2023

Previously, RFC 2616 allowed the use of Transfer-Encoding and Content-Length HTTP headers in the same request. RFC 7230 supersedes RFC 2616 and prohibits the use of Transfer-Encoding and Content-Length headers in the same request because they can cause HTTP request smuggling vulnerabilities.

Starting on July 1st, 2023, Cloudflare will decline requests with both Transfer-Encoding and Content-Length HTTP headers.

More accurate bandwidth estimates for live video playback

When playing live video, Cloudflare Stream now provides significantly more accurate estimates of the bandwidth needs of each quality level to client video players. This ensures that live video plays at the highest quality that viewers have adequate bandwidth to play.

As live video is streamed to Cloudflare, we transcode it to make it available to viewers at multiple quality levels. During transcoding, we learn about the real bandwidth needs of each segment of video at each quality level, and use this to provide an estimate of the bandwidth requirements of each quality level the in HLS (.m3u8) and DASH (.mpd) manifests.

If a live stream contains content with low visual complexity, like a slideshow presentation, the bandwidth estimates provided in the HLS manifest will be lower, ensuring that the most viewers possible view the highest quality level, since it requires relatively little bandwidth. Conversely, if a live stream contains content with high visual complexity, like live sports with motion and camera panning, the bandwidth estimates provided in the HLS manifest will be higher, ensuring that viewers with inadequate bandwidth switch down to a lower quality level, and their playback does not buffer.

This change is particularly helpful if you're building a platform or application that allows your end users to create their own live streams, where these end users have their own streaming software and hardware that you can't control. Because this new functionality adapts based on the live video we receive, rather than just the configuration advertised by the broadcaster, even in cases where your end users' settings are less than ideal, client video players will not receive excessively high estimates of bandwidth requirements, causing playback quality to decrease unnecessarily. Your end users don't have to be OBS Studio experts in order to get high quality video playback.

No work is required on your end — this change applies to all live inputs, for all customers of Cloudflare Stream. For more, refer to the docs.
