### Compulsory parameters

- `"zone_identifier"` is the Zone ID of your site
- `"zone_identifier"` is the Zone ID of your site, from the domain overview page written as *Zone ID*

## Domain setup

1. Make sure you have `curl` installed
1. Obtain your API key from Cloudflare website ([see this](https://support.cloudflare.com/hc/en-us/articles/200167836-Where-do-I-find-my-Cloudflare-API-key-))
1. Obtain your zone identifier for your domain name, from the domain's overview page written as *Zone ID*
1. Find your **identifier** in the `id` field with

```sh
ZONEID=aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
EMAIL=example@example.com
APIKEY=aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
curl -X GET "https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/zones/$ZONEID/dns_records" \
-H "X-Auth-Email: $EMAIL" \
-H "X-Auth-Key: $APIKEY"
```

You can now fill in the necessary parameters in *config.json*
