Provider Setup

required_providers {
cloudflare = {
source = "cloudflare/cloudflare"
version = "~> 4.0"
}
}
}
provider "cloudflare" {
# Uses CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN env var
}
Authentication
export CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN="your-api-token"
CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN=op://Infrastructure/Cloudflare/api_token
See references/cloudflare-api-permissions.md for token permissions and legacy API key setup.
