Workers as your fallback origin
If you are building your application on Cloudflare Workers, you can use a Worker as the origin for your SaaS zone (also known as your fallback origin).
-
In your SaaS zone, create and set a fallback origin. Ensure the fallback origin only has an originless DNS record:
- Example:
service.example.com AAAA 100::
- Example:
-
In that same zone, navigate to Workers Routes.
-
Click Add route.
-
Decide whether you want traffic bound for your SaaS zone (
example.com
) to go to that Worker:-
If yes, set the following values:
- Route:
*/*
(routes everything — including custom hostnames — to the Worker). - Worker: Select the Worker used for your SaaS application.
- Route:
-
If no, set the following values:
- Route:
*.<zonename>.com/*
(only routes custom hostname traffic to the Worker) - Worker: None
- Route:
-
-
Click Save.
