For Workers & Pages, what is the name of the domain?

What is the issue or error you’re encountering

want api to create waf custom rules and speed rules for free 5 / 1 rules

What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?

I checked Cloudflare’s API documentation and found that to create WAF custom rules via API, we need to first create a ruleset at the account level. Additionally, using rulesets requires a paid Cloudflare plan.

I’m wondering if there’s any way to directly create custom rules and rate limiting rules through the API without these requirements?
