When Cloudflare fails

Cloudflare sits in front of millions of websites as their CDN, DNS and security layer. A Cloudflare incident usually shows up as other sites failing behind a Cloudflare error page, and its status page lists incidents per data center.

dash.cloudflare.com answers automated checks with a Cloudflare challenge, so we check the API behind it instead, plus the 1.1.1.1 resolver and cloudflare.com.

If Cloudflare is not working for you

Find what fails for you among the services we monitor above. If that service is green, the problem is likely on your side: try the next steps.
Open cloudflare.com on another network, such as mobile data. If it works there, the problem is your connection, your DNS or your VPN.
Update or restart the app, then sign out and back in.

Questions about Cloudflare outages.

Is Cloudflare down right now?

The status at the top of this page comes from Hyperping checks of Cloudflare, run every minute and refreshed on the page every 60 seconds. Green means the latest checks succeeded; red means they are failing, confirmed from several regions.

How do you check Cloudflare?

We monitor 3 Cloudflare services every minute, in turn from Virginia, Frankfurt and Singapore: Cloudflare API (api.cloudflare.com, up on a 403 response), 1.1.1.1 DNS (cloudflare-dns.com, up on a successful response) and Website (www.cloudflare.com, up on a successful response). When a check fails, other regions check again before that service counts as down. Cloudflare counts as down when all of them are, and as partly down when only some are. dash.cloudflare.com answers automated checks with a Cloudflare challenge, so we check the API behind it instead, plus the 1.1.1.1 resolver and cloudflare.com.

Cloudflare is up here but not working for me. Why?

An outage can be partial: one feature, one app, one country or one internet provider, and our checks see Cloudflare from data centers. Try another network such as mobile data, update or restart the app, and check the official status page for an incident on one feature.

Does Cloudflare have an official status page?

Yes, cloudflarestatus.com. Cloudflare's team updates it by hand, so it can lag behind the start of an outage; our checks run every minute whatever it says.

Can I get alerted when Cloudflare goes down?

Yes. Create a free Hyperping account and add api.cloudflare.com as a monitor: you are alerted by email, Slack or your other channels within a minute of a failure. The free plan includes 20 monitors, enough for your own site and the services it depends on.
