There's some bots that use Workers but Discord limits them to outbound webhooks.

kian•10/17/23, 5:40 PM

You can't have a Gateway bot on Workers as Discord block them.

tobiOP•10/17/23, 5:41 PM

oh, so requests originating from workers are not accepted by discord?

Ttobi oh, so requests originating from workers are not accepted by discord?

Isaac McFadyen•10/17/23, 5:41 PM

That's correct.

Isaac McFadyen•10/17/23, 5:41 PM

Outbound webhooks only (i.e. slash commands)

tobiOP•10/17/23, 5:42 PM

i have to say, that is a bit funny

Isaac McFadyen•10/17/23, 5:42 PM

Yeah sorry, should have clarified

tobiOP•10/17/23, 5:42 PM

oh, so if i want status updates every hour with a cron triggered worker, i can do that just fine?

tobiOP•10/17/23, 5:42 PM

makes perfect sense, thanks

Isaac McFadyen•10/17/23, 5:42 PM

We actually use a bot not on Cloudflare called Zeppelin: https://zeppelin.gg

Isaac McFadyen•10/17/23, 5:43 PM

Although some of our slash command bots are on Workers, as well as the blog bot I think?

tobiOP•10/17/23, 5:45 PM

yeah, the blog post bot was what gave me the idea to ask.

kian•10/17/23, 5:45 PM

There's also stuff like https://github.com/WalshyDev/cf-status-worker

Isaac McFadyen•10/17/23, 5:45 PM

I believe the way the blog bot works is by running on a cron, grabbing blog posts, putting them in KV, and then posting them

Isaac McFadyen•10/17/23, 5:45 PM

KV is because then it can know what it's posted/seen already

tobiOP•10/17/23, 5:46 PM

hmm, makes sense for longer duration cron stuff

tobiOP•10/17/23, 5:47 PM

i suppose nowadays one would use D1 instead

Brandon | Cloudflare TSE•10/17/23, 5:47 PM

so many features, so little time!

tobiOP•10/17/23, 5:47 PM

i know that feeling

Kasumi•10/17/23, 7:04 PM

If the Cloudflare Billing Support Team is also confused like me then I'll laugh AYS_WobblesLaugh

Erisa•10/17/23, 7:06 PM

They might be at first, but they have the tools and processes to work it out

Kasumi•10/17/23, 7:06 PM

Yes

Kasumi•10/17/23, 7:07 PM

Am I allowed to talk about the current process here of it? Or not?

I expect Cloudflare converts them - if you try and send them from other servers as uppercase (i.e. in NGINX) then it auto-converts them for you.

Isaac McFadyen•10/17/23, 9:35 PM

Same with headers sent from cURL etc

Isaac McFadyen•10/17/23, 9:36 PM

Oh, like the validation itself?

Isaac McFadyen•10/17/23, 9:37 PM

Interesting. I can escalate.

Isaac McFadyen•10/17/23, 9:39 PM

Done, thanks.

Avi•10/17/23, 10:44 PM

i think there may be an unreported outage of some kind

Avi•10/17/23, 10:45 PM

i just created a new pages project and worker, and neither is working. it's been 20 mins.

Avi•10/17/23, 10:46 PM

getting this message: "There is nothing here yet
If you expect something to be here, it may take some time.
Please check back again later."

Avi•10/17/23, 10:47 PM

meanwhile, the new pages project is bouncing between error 523 and 522

Cyb3r-Jak3•10/17/23, 10:49 PM

Team is aware

Avi•10/17/23, 10:49 PM

glad to hear... but this has been going on for (at least) 27 minutes and https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/ isn't updated

was there an update posted somewhere i missed?

James•10/17/23, 10:50 PM

Not yet, but something should show up soon. Sorry for the issues

Cloudflare Pages/Workers Delays

Brandon | Cloudflare TSE•10/17/23, 11:07 PM

What's the API endpoint for the new WAF rate limiting?

Brandon | Cloudflare TSE•10/17/23, 11:07 PM

our api docs are a disaster

Brandon | Cloudflare TSE•10/17/23, 11:09 PM

i wish there was a way to query the api endpoint like

Brandon | Cloudflare TSE•10/17/23, 11:09 PM

curl -x get https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/curl -x get https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/

and just have it poop out all the endpoints

James•10/17/23, 11:10 PM

it's the rulesets api now, sec

James•10/17/23, 11:10 PM

https://developers.cloudflare.com/ruleset-engine/rulesets-api/

BBrandon | Cloudflare TSE our api docs are a disaster

James•10/17/23, 11:11 PM

private thread, sorry everyone else, but yes, you might find this an insightful read: https://canary.discord.com/channels/595317990191398933/1042449111896555530

James•10/17/23, 11:11 PM

https://developers.cloudflare.com/waf/rate-limiting-rules/create-api/ is also a good reference

BBrandon | Cloudflare TSE i wish there was a way to query the api endpoint like

Erisa•10/17/23, 11:24 PM

Thats available in https://api.cloudflare.com/schemas.json but as you can see there are a loooot, for rulesets its best to go through the docs like james linked

Brandon | Cloudflare TSE•10/17/23, 11:27 PM

that json is 9.5 MB if you format and save it dogekek

Erisa•10/17/23, 11:35 PM

Yeah

Avi•10/17/23, 11:38 PM

does anyone know of services that will cause cloudflare to automatically try to crawl my pages project? i'm getting some mysterious visits from what seem like bots, and i can't quite figure out where they're from.

Avi•10/17/23, 11:38 PM

theyre not doing anything abusive, just visiting and leaving it seems — but with javascript enabled

probably someone has asked this before: does cloudflare use workers for their discord posting/modera
