D1 doesn't have a connection URL as traditional databases. Either you query D1 through a Worker using the D1 binding (https://developers.cloudflare.com/d1/worker-api/) which is the fastest and most performant, or you should use the D1 REST API (https://developers.cloudflare.com/api/resources/d1/subresources/database/methods/query/).

I do not recommend the REST API if you will do several database queries (round trips), since it's not meant to be used yet in your hot paths. It's slow at the moment, more rate limited than the Workers binding, and you won't have a nice experience. We are improving this in the following months but it's a long ongoing process.

Is it possible to create a D1 database with the API and access it through a worker binding? What is the workflow for dynamically creating a database per user and accessing it in a worker?

Dean•2/22/25, 7:12 AM

Yes you can, this is how I do it: I create the database via the API, i use the API to also create the table / schema and then use the API to modify the worker settings to add the D1 binding. The last bit is the tricky bit, even from when I've done it the documentation / endpoints have changed.

SQQ•2/22/25, 6:35 PM

I had a look at the Workers API and you are right is looks tricky to say the least. Provisioning a database per client for a SaaS app automatically and tying it to a worker via various API calls seems fragile. I’d love to use D1 for my needs but Turso seems much easier for this scenario at the moment. I had a think about how I could do this without API calls and the only way I could think of was to create all the databases up front (100’s 1000’s?), bind them to a worker, and then control assignment via my app. Not the most elegant solution.

Dynamic bindings is suppose to fix this which is suppose to release soon but that was nearly 6 months ago and haven’t heard anything more on it. You’re also capped to 5000 databases at the moment per worker.

SQQ•2/22/25, 9:00 PM

Sounds promising - hopefully they include some sort of smooth solution to the per worker limit for bindings and storage limit per database - thanks for the info!

Larry•2/23/25, 12:15 AM

In the meantime, you might want to take a look at Durable Objects (DOs) with the SQLite storage engine. The max database size there is only 1GB, but it will increase to match D1s (10GB) once it's out of beta. You get the equivalent of dynamic binding with DOs because each DO instance gets its own SQLite database.

Special type of question. I use the new worker assets with a framework. i have access to my bindings on my pages but now i want to connect drizzle
usually you have a db.ts where you export your drizzle client. but here i dont have access to my platform env.

i see some people do

const db = drizzle(env.DB);

const db = drizzle(env.DB);

everywhere they need the db. is that the way to go? or is it still possible to somehow export 1 drizzle client globally?

Skycrafter•2/25/25, 3:13 PM

Hello, I have a website project where I'm trying to use a D1 db. However, I'm getting big latencies, so I was thinking of using the Sessions API. However, I'm afraid of data inconsistency (for reads) from one user to the next. Can help me understand how should a session be initiated on a worker to ensure that all future queries have up-to-date data? Like, should navigating between pages create a new session to have up-to-date info? That feels as bad as using no replication. Any insights on if I missed something? Thanks a lot

James•2/25/25, 3:15 PM

The sessions API doesn’t exist yet - but soon. I’m sure a lot more info will be shared when it’s released and generally available, with best practices, recommendations, etc.

lambrospetrouOP•2/26/25, 6:47 AM

Replication is not released yet, and will be optional anyway for some time. You can decide to keep your primary database instance in EEUR or WEUR.

try { // Check if the DB is reachable env.DB.prepare("SELECT 1").first(); const result = env.DB.prepare("INSERT INTO ... (...) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?)") .bind() .run() .then((result: unknown) => { console.debug("Insertion result:", result); }) .catch((error: unknown) => { console.error("Error inserting data:", error); throw error; // Rethrow to handle in the catch block }); console.debug({ ... }, "logged to D1 database", { result }); } catch (err) { console.error("Insertion into", { env }, "failed", err); }

D1 doesn't have a connection URL as traditional databases. Either you query D1 through a Worker usin
