Cloudflare Portal Integration

API Token Setup

The portal uses Cloudflare's v4 API for DNS management and (optionally) domain registration.

Minimum token: DNS Edit Only

Permission	Level	Why
Zone → DNS → Edit	All zones	View and manage DNS records
Account → Account Settings → Read	All accounts	List zones, verify token
TTL	Never expire	No unexpected lockouts

Extended token: Add Registrar access

To view domain expiry dates and purchase/transfer domains:

Additional Permission	Level	Why
Account → Domain Registration → Read	All accounts	View expiry, auto-renew status
Account → Domain Registration → Edit	All accounts	Register new domains, toggle auto-renew

Turnstile (public form protection)

Turnstile is a separate widget key, NOT an API token. Generate at dash.cloudflare.com → Turnstile → Add Widget.

Portal Pages

DNS Zones page

Lists all zones with status, plan, record count
