Creating a new partial zone via API on buiness plan fails: Partial zone signup not allowed
What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?
Greetings,
I’m having a hard time creating a new Partial Zone on the Business plan via the Cloudflare API and have run out of leads while trying to discover WHY, and what I must do to unblock myself. Perhaps the community can help me understand what context I’m missing?
I have a zone hosted on Route53 and I want to send traffic from one of its subdomains (for one of our HTTP applications) through Cloudflare’s proxy / edge-network to utilize Cloudflare DDoS Protection for Web. I still need to keep Route53 as the authoritative name server. The Partial (CNAME) setup guide indicates that the Buiness plan should be sufficient to create the zone:
…so I’m trying to create a Partial zone on the Business plan.
However, my attempts to create the new partial zone reosurce via the Cloudflare API are failing with a HTTP Response status 400 (Bad Request) and indicating that “Partial zone signup not allowed”.
A curious wrinkle is that I can manually setup the zone via the Cloudflare Dashboard / Web UI.
Some more context:
My Account is “type: standard”
$ curl --silent https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/accounts \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H "Authorization: Bearer xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" \
| jq .result[].type
"standard"
The API token I’m using has the following permissions on all accounts and zones:
- Account - Account Settings - Read
- Zone - Zone Settings - Edit
- Zone - Zone - Edit
- Zone - DNS - Edit
I’m automating this process via Terraform and below is a snippet of the plan from the terraform apply step:
Terraform will perform the following actions:
# cloudflare_zone.xxxxxxxx-com will be created
+ resource "cloudflare_zone" "xxxxxxxx-com" {
+ account_id = "********************************"
+ id = (known after apply)
+ jump_start = false
+ meta = (known after apply)
+ name_servers = (known after apply)
+ paused = false
+ plan = "business"
+ status = (known after apply)
+ type = "partial"
+ vanity_name_servers = (known after apply)
+ verification_key = (known after apply)
+ zone = "xxxxxxxx.com"
}
Plan: 1 to add, 0 to change, 0 to destroy.
cloudflare_zone.xxxxxxxx-com: Creating...
Error: error creating zone "xxxxxxxx.com": Partial zone signup not allowed (1104)
I’ve also confirmed this happens outside the context of Terraform via cURL:
$ curl --request POST \
--url https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/zones \
--header "Authorization: Bearer $CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN" \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data "{
\"account\": {
\"id\": \"$CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID\"
},
\"name\": \"xxxxxxxx.com\",
\"type\": \"partial\"
}"
{"success":false,"errors":[{"code":1104,"message":"Partial zone signup not allowed"}],"messages":[],"result":null}
