Review DNS records
When you add a new site to Cloudflare, Cloudflare automatically scans for common records and adds them to the DNS zone. The records show up under the respective zone DNS > Records page.
Since this scan is not guaranteed to find all existing DNS records, you need to review your records, paying special attention to the following record types:
- Zone apex records (
example.com
) - Subdomain records (
www.example.com
orblog.example.com
) - Email records
If you want more control over which DNS records are imported and how, import a zone file.
