Review DNS records
Cloudflare can automatically scan for common records and add them to the DNS zone for you, or you can add records manually. These records show up under your domain on the DNS > Records page of the dashboard.
If you add a zone via the API, you can manually invoke the quick scan with the Scan DNS Records endpoint.
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.comorblog.example.com) - Email records
If you want more control over which DNS records are imported and how, import a zone file.
