api abuse

Hello,
Yesterday i redirected my domain DNS handling to cloudflare. I use a free plan and i'm totally satisfied but got a question though.
I noticed that today at 3 am UTC my app had to handle around 2k requests coming from unwanted agents. All of them were a GET requests for confidential files like
GET /.env
GET /.env
,
GET /config.json
GET /config.json
etc.
All of those requests got a 404 response but I really would like to somehow block these kind of requests.
My question is can it be done with some configuration, service at cloudflare? Thanks in advance for response
