Create a Cloudflare machine

Creating a machine enables Next-Gen Trust Security to connect to Cloudflare so certificates can be provisioned to supported Cloudflare resources. After creating the machine, you can provision certificates to it.

Before you begin

  • An active Cloudflare account.
  • Credentials with sufficient permissions to manage certificates in Cloudflare.
  • (Optional) Shared credentials stored in a supported credential provider.
  1. From Credential Type, select one of the following:
    • Enter Credentials to provide credentials manually.
    • Select Credentials to use shared credentials from a configured credential provider.
    Note: The available credential options depend on your environment configuration.
  2. If you selected Enter Credentials, enter the required Cloudflare credential value.
  3. If you selected Select Credentials, choose the appropriate credential from the Credential list.
  4. Click Test Access to verify connectivity.
  5. Click Continue. The Continue button is enabled only after the connection test succeeds.
