Create a CNAME with Cloudflare

To utilize our inbound proxies you will need to setup a CNAME from the hostname you own to our Inbound Proxy domain.

First navigate to your inbound proxy and find the DNS Settings section. This section will contain the information you need to create your CNAME.

In your Domain provider you will create a CNAME record that points to the domain shown in the Points To section of the DNS Settings.
