Cloudflare can automatically scan for common records and add them to the DNS zone for you, or you can add records manually. These records show up under your domain on the DNS > Records page of the dashboard.

I know I can make an A record at DNS records.

How do you link the domain to a IP address in cloudflare? Right now I have the domain with no IP address.

you don’t need an IP address for an email address. you need MX records. Who is your email provider?

I'm using MXroute

Chaika•12/21/24, 8:23 PM

Make sure you're not appending the bucket name to the r2 custom domain url. If you go to your bucket in the dash -> Objects and click on a file name, it'll give you the URL to reach it via your Custom Domain

Walshy•12/23/24, 3:00 PM

Well no proxy means we don't handle the request, so you'd need to do it at the origin

Chaika•12/23/24, 3:09 PM

unless you really need it (constantly under attack/want to get rid of bots at all costs), I wouldn't recommend keeping it on, yea. Espec if your site is static and you can just cache pages and not worry about attacks as much. It also just won't be effective at all if you have an API for example, just have to disable it entirely at least on that subdomain (need sbfm for that of course), it's just going to false positive and cause issues, meant for web/user traffic
