What is it?

This is the official server-side TypeScript and JavaScript client for the Cloudflare REST API. It wraps the API's resources, such as zones, accounts and KV namespaces, as typed methods with request parameter and response field definitions, so developers can call Cloudflare services without hand-writing HTTP requests.

The library handles common concerns out of the box: automatic retries with exponential backoff for connection errors and 408, 409, 429 and 5xx responses, configurable timeouts, typed error classes for each HTTP status, and auto-pagination through list endpoints with `for await` loops. File uploads accept Node streams, web File objects, fetch Responses or a helper for raw bytes.

It runs in browsers, Node.js 20+, Deno, Bun, Cloudflare Workers and Vercel Edge Runtime, and supports a tree-shakable entry point for smaller bundles. The library is generated with Stainless, and the full method list is in api.md.

Key features

  • 01Typed methods and parameter definitions for Cloudflare API resources
  • 02Automatic retries with exponential backoff, configurable via maxRetries
  • 03Typed error classes for each HTTP status code
  • 04Auto-pagination for list endpoints using for await loops
  • 05File upload support for Node streams, File objects and Responses
  • 06Tree-shakable client that includes only selected resources

Use cases

  • Automating DNS zone creation and management from a Node.js deployment script
  • Managing Cloudflare KV namespaces or accounts from a backend service
  • Calling Cloudflare APIs from Cloudflare Workers or Vercel Edge functions
  • Building internal tooling that needs typed access to Cloudflare resources

Quick start

  1. 1

    Install the library from the repository via npm
