I finally chose to call a childProcess which is a npm package (child_process) and use directly the curl version from the cloudflare documentation, looks like :

childProcess('curl -X POST "https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/zones/:zone_record/dns_records" -H "X-Auth-Email: XXXX@XX.fr" -H "X-Auth-Key: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data \'{"type":"CNAME","name":"' + username + '.ilikestream.com","content":"ilikestream.com","ttl":120,"proxied":true}\'', function(error, stdout, stderr) { console.log(error); });

@hach3 "params" is the JSON object required by the API, which you can see an example of in the documentation. In this case.

cf.dnsRecords.add({
  type: 'CNAME',
  name: username + '.ilikestream.com',
  content: 'ilikestream.com'.
  ttl: 120,
  proxied: true
});

There's definitely room for improvement to the node binding's documentation.

using version 2.4.1

Response code 400 (Bad Request) 💥

    let resp = await cf.dnsRecords.add('SOME_ZONE_ID', {
      type: 'CNAME',
      name: 'some.domain.ext',
      content: '1.1.1.1', 
      proxied: true,
    })

However, the same zone and credentials works with other methods like cf.dnsRecords.browse.
@terinjokes in your example above you are not specifying the zone. Is that possible (to omit the zone id)?

[terinjokes]

No, zone ID is required for DNS operations, my example above is wrong.

It looks like you really want to set an A record, not a CNAME.
