SaaS Management: Cloudflare Connector

JumpCloud® SaaS Management gives you visibility and control over shadow IT and SaaS app use within your org. Connectors detect shadow IT without adoption of a browser extension and provide a significant increase to the valuable usage and security insights.

The Cloudflare Connector retrieves users lists and data from the Cloudflare API. It captures new users and login events via periodic polling for real-time updates. This connector also ensures data integrity and security because it is configured via OAuth with read-only permissions.

Prerequisites

  • To configure the connector, you must have access to the Cloudflare dashboard.

Considerations

  • Based on your organization’s size, the initial collection of data may take some time, up to an hour. 

Configuring Cloudflare

  1. Login to the Cloudflare dashboard.
  2. Go to My Profile > API Tokens.
  3. Click Create Token. 
  4. Enter a name for your token. 
  5. For the token type, select from the following options:
    • (Recommended) Create a User API Token using the Read all resource template to provide full access. 
    • Or you can create a custom token. Ensure the token has permissions to read resources like accounts and users. For example:
      1. All accounts - Account Settings:Read
      2. All users - Memberships:Read, User Details:Read
  6. Copy the generated API token.

Configuring JumpCloud

  1. Log in to the JumpCloud Admin Portal.
  2. Go to SECURITY MANAGEMENT > SaaS Management.
  3. In SaaS Management settings, go to the Connector tab and select + Add Connector.
  1. Select Cloudflare and click Connect. 
  2. Enter a name and click Connect.
  3. In the API Key field, paste the token copied in the previous section.
  4. Click Save Connector.
  5. You’ll see Cloudflare in the list of Connectors.

Note:

If permissions are accidentally removed, or if the admin who configured left your organization, the connector will stop working and you will be prompted to Reconnect.

Uninstall/Remove

  • On the Connector’s detail page, click on Delete Connector and follow the prompts.
  • To revoke permissions granted to JumpCloud, go to the Cloudflare Dashboard > My Profile > API Tokens and delete the token generated for JumpCloud.
