      Cloudflare Logpull Connector Setup Guide

      The Cloudflare Logpull Connector allows you to stream logs containing crucial data about the connecting client, request paths through the Cloudflare network, and responses from the origin web server. This guide outlines the prerequisites, how to retrieve them, and the necessary configurations to set up the connector.

      Prerequisites

      • Zone ID: The unique identifier of the website or application added to Cloudflare.
      • Cloudflare API Token: This token must have the appropriate permissions to pull logs.
