It was just random. I use a TTL of one year, and expire my KV cache whenever I update the values.

--remote:

✘ [ERROR] In development, you should use a separate kv namespace than the one you'd use in production. Please create a new kv namespace with "wrangler kv namespace create <name> --preview" and add its id as preview_id to the kv_namespace "CROM" in your wrangler.json file

And I follow the instructions and update my wrangler.jsonc:

      "binding": "CROM",
      "id": "cda6c32602a643b1ac92d1f8bac5abff",

koraytaylan•6/26/25, 7:34 PM

i was trying to build a POC where i wanted to add items as a tree. keys would be /master/child1, /master/child2 and then i would call list with /master/ prefix to get the child item keys and since the doc says list will always return keys in alphabetical order, i was hoping when delete child1, the next list1 call would return /master/child2 as the first item. however, for about a minute the list calls keep returning /master/child1. is this the expected behavior? i was making the list calls from within a workflow if that might be a factor somehow. replaced kv calls with a simple insert, select for d1 in the very same setup and the problem went away which made me think there must be some sort of caching for kv then.

hey guys
I was wondering if there's a way, possibly through a support ticket, to get a dump of a KV namespace
I have tried exporting the data via a script, but since the API only allows reading 100 records at a time, and I have 1.96M keys, it's gonna take ages

Is there a better way?

Hth4nh•7/24/25, 7:05 PM

Hello everyone,

I'm encountering an issue with the Cloudflare Worker KV where I get an empty array when trying to retrieve multiple keys at once.

When I run the following code, it returns an empty array:

const values = await options.env.TEST.get(["2930", "2929"]);
console.log([...values.entries()]); // []

// Expected: [["2930", "foo"],["2929","bar"]]

const values = await options.env.TEST.get(["2930", "2929"]);
console.log([...values.entries()]); // []

// Expected: [["2930", "foo"],["2929","bar"]]

const values = await options.env.TEST.get(["2930", "2929"]);
console.log([...values.entries()]); // []

// Expected: [["2930", "foo"],["2929","bar"]]

const values = await options.env.TEST.get(["2930", "2929"]);
console.log([...values.entries()]); // []

// Expected: [["2930", "foo"],["2929","bar"]]

However, this alternative approach works as expected:

const values = await Promise.all(["2930", "2929"].map((key) => options.env.TEST.get(key)));
console.log(values); // ["foo", "bar"]

const values = await Promise.all(["2930", "2929"].map((key) => options.env.TEST.get(key)));
console.log(values); // ["foo", "bar"]

const values = await Promise.all(["2930", "2929"].map((key) => options.env.TEST.get(key)));
console.log(values); // ["foo", "bar"]

const values = await Promise.all(["2930", "2929"].map((key) => options.env.TEST.get(key)));
console.log(values); // ["foo", "bar"]

According to the documentation, passing an array of keys to the

get()

get()

method should return a

Map

Map

of the key-value pairs.

Here is my

Workers KV is Cloudflare's global key-value store, serving millions of requests per second across hundreds of billions of stored objects.

alison•8/18/25, 8:50 PM

There's a relatively well-documented issue with writing to KV where

metadata

metadata

is supposedly optional, but required in the type definition within the

cloudflare-typescript

cloudflare-typescript

library.

Easy, right? Just pass in a dummy empty

metadata

metadata

object on your writes to KV! WRONG!!

If you just do that, your value gets stored in KV as an object like

{ value: XYZ, metadata: {}}

{ value: XYZ, metadata: {}}

. Not super intuitive, I'd rather just store XYZ. So then I learned:

When passing in

metadata

metadata

, you actually need to include the

Content-Type: multipart/form-metadata

Content-Type: multipart/form-metadata

header (image 1, link). The library has some handling for automatically including this header, but it doesn't catch these cases where we're forced to pass in empty metadata

Logical next move is to just pass in the header. Ok cool, easy right? WRONG!

Now I get an error back:

{"code":10047,"message":"can not parse value and metadata from multipart request body: 'could not parse multipart request: 'no multipart boundary param in Content-Type''"}

{"code":10047,"message":"can not parse value and metadata from multipart request body: 'could not parse multipart request: 'no multipart boundary param in Content-Type''"}

{"code":10047,"message":"can not parse value and metadata from multipart request body: 'could not parse multipart request: 'no multipart boundary param in Content-Type''"}

{"code":10047,"message":"can not parse value and metadata from multipart request body: 'could not parse multipart request: 'no multipart boundary param in Content-Type''"}

Fair, but I feel I am entering hacky code land and am not exactly sure how to set and use a boundary param within the context of the API. Is it as easy as just passing something like

Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=asfghjkl

Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=asfghjkl

?

Has anyone run into this issue? If so, how did you fix it? Did you just take the L and take

.value

.value

on your GET response from KV, potentially running into issues when this finally gets fixed? Or did you manually pass in a fancy header? Or something else I am forgetting?

Here are some previous issues where people encountered the same thing: https://github.com/cloudflare/cloudflare-go/issues/3911, https://github.com/cloudflare/cloudflare-python/issues/2519

When calling get using a key obtained from the list, null may be returned even if the key exists. Is this behavior caused by KV consistency?

How much workload can a KV handle? How to make writes more efficient?

I'm planning on making a website where you can basically press just one button, but I want to keep track of how many times people pressed the button.

However, I know there are certain limits to the KV (reads & writes) so basically just getting the value and incrementing it would be too inefficient since it would be two requests to the KV every time the button is clicked.
So what would you guys suggest to make this more efficient?
