I'm not quite understanding step 1 of the setup https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-for-platforms/cloudflare-for-saas/start/getting-started/#step-1--create-fallback-origin .. what's the IP address if I'm wanting to point a custom subdomain at a worker?

Chaika•7/5/24, 5:49 PM

it gives you an example right there, 192.0.2.1192.0.2.1

Chaika•7/5/24, 5:49 PM

or you can do AAAAAAAA 100::100::

Chaika•7/5/24, 5:49 PM

doesn't matter too much, your route will take over anyway

johtsoOP•7/5/24, 5:54 PM

It's just a "dummy" ip address?

Jjohtso It's just a "dummy" ip address?

Chaika•7/5/24, 5:55 PM

yup

Chaika•7/5/24, 5:55 PM

just something to be proxied so CF responds with their Proxy IPs on Edge and traffic flows in

Chaika•7/5/24, 5:55 PM

100:: is IPv6 Discard (don't go anywhere)

Chaika•7/5/24, 5:55 PM

192.0.2.1 is just a private ip, no nice Ipv4 discard to use

CChaika yup

johtsoOP•7/5/24, 6:03 PM

probably a really basic question, I haven't played much with this part of cloudflare.. once I've got the custom hostname set up, how do I configure where it gets routed to?

johtsoOP•7/5/24, 6:03 PM

I'm guessing I have to set a rule somewhere

Chaika•7/5/24, 6:04 PM

if you want to use workers, then you can just use routes

Cloudflare Docs

Workers as your fallback origin · Cloudflare for Platforms docs

Learn how to use a Worker as the fallback origin for your SaaS zone.

Chaika•7/5/24, 6:05 PM

one wildcard to catch all, or specific ones for each custom hostname

CChaika if you want to use workers, then you can just use routes

johtsoOP•7/5/24, 6:11 PM

hmm, so if I have domain foo.xyzfoo.xyz
created fallback origin fallback.foo.xyzfallback.foo.xyz pointing at the dummy IP
then made a CNAME proxy.foo.xyzproxy.foo.xyz pointing at fallback.foo.xyzfallback.foo.xyz
then set up CNAME from foo.otherdomain.examplefoo.otherdomain.example pointing at proxy.foo.xyzproxy.foo.xyz and added foo.otherdomain.examplefoo.otherdomain.example as a custom hostname

would the workers route then look something like foo.otherdomain.example.com/*foo.otherdomain.example.com/*? can I match on that external domain?

Jjohtso hmm, so if I have domain `foo.xyz` created fallback origin `fallback.foo.xyz` po...

Chaika•7/5/24, 6:13 PM

then made a CNAME proxy.foo.xyz pointing at fallback.foo.xyz

That's unnecessary, they can just cname to fallback or any proxied record on your domain

johtsoOP•7/5/24, 6:14 PM

"they" being me

Chaika•7/5/24, 6:14 PM

rest of that makes sense yea. Having CF for SaaS on a zone enables you to make routes that don't match your zone/match externals

johtsoOP•7/5/24, 6:15 PM

awesome

johtsoOP•7/5/24, 6:16 PM

I'm not sure why the docs recommend having that intermediate CNAME proxy

johtsoOP•7/5/24, 6:16 PM

there must a good reason

Jjohtso there must a good reason

Chaika•7/5/24, 6:19 PM

oh, looks like they just wanted you to do *.customers.saasprovider.com*.customers.saasprovider.com, so people could cname like google.customers.saasprovider.com

johtsoOP•7/5/24, 6:22 PM

hmm, what advantage would that have? that I could route based on that domain so they could change their own domain if they want and not break the routing?

Jjohtso hmm, what advantage would that have? that I could route based on that domain so ...

Chaika•7/5/24, 6:24 PM

that I could route based on that domain so they could change their own domain if they want and not break the routing

No, how would CF know what CNAME each request used if they're using ext dns? The only thing they get is the host header and the ip requested

Chaika•7/5/24, 6:25 PM

I think advantage is just more pretty

provides a friendly and more flexible place for customers to route their traffic.

and you could always point them to some other unproxied origin them if needed I guess for a specific customer

CChaika > that I could route based on that domain so they could change their own domain...

johtsoOP•7/5/24, 6:26 PM

that makes sense, my dns understanding is a bit thin. so then what's the advantage of them CNAMEing google.customer.saasprovider.com instead of just everyone CNAMEing customer.saasprovider.com?

johtsoOP•7/5/24, 6:26 PM

ah that makes sense

johtsoOP•7/5/24, 6:27 PM

aesthetics and then flexibility of switching up the routing for just that customer outside of the SaaS functionality

johtsoOP•7/5/24, 6:28 PM

well, I'm hitting my hello world worker through my custom domain with SSL, thanks for the help

valkyrie_pilot•7/6/24, 2:06 AM

you could also do some shard scaling by pointing them at different IPs so that every node doesn’t know how to route every single request

Hey, my team and I have a website for a project, but when trying to go in the website, we get an error saying

Error: Connection closed.

I managed to load into the website today once, we might think it is an issue with cache, but we did the purge cache in cloudflare website and nothing changed.

The website is

from what I can tell it has something to do with RSC I think?

we only use client components, with next v14 you must have enabled RSC by default

probably best to create a help thread in #general-help and continue there

Out of curiosity: how can you tell between RSC and client components there?

I'd be able to tell it's Next but that's it

Requiring users to enter their new password twice before changing it is a good practice. Since the password field is masked, users might not notice if they make a typing error. Confirming the password helps prevent mistakes.

Hey, a few months ago I contacted to Cloudflare Galileo team for our application but then I lost our conversation and I can't find it now. I tried to contact Galileo through their landing page but now I don't get any responses. Can someone from CF help me contact Galileo again?
