Cloudflare
With the Cloudflare integration, you can keep your Cloudflare DNS records up to date.
The integration runs every hour, but can also be triggered by running the cloudflare.update_records service.
Requirements
The setup requires an API Token created with Zone:Zone:Read and Zone:DNS:Edit permissions for all zones in your account.
An easy way to create this is to start with the “Edit zone DNS” template then add Zone:Zone:Read to the permissions.
Configuration
Adding Cloudflare to your Home Assistant instance can be done via the user interface, by using this My button:
If the above My button doesn’t work, you can also perform the following steps manually:
-
Browse to your Home Assistant instance.
-
In the sidebar click on Settings.
-
From the configuration menu select: Devices & Services.
-
In the bottom right, click on the Add Integration button.
-
From the list, search and select “Cloudflare”.
-
Follow the instruction on screen to complete the set up.
