Cloudflare interferrence with Jetpack/WooCommerce

I have a wordpress site that uses woocommerce and jetpack for my online store. I am having problems with jetpack and woocommerce services.

When Cloudflare is enabled, the below link returns a 403 error, but when it is disabled, it returns normal.
https://public-api.wordpress.com/rest/v1/sites/www.alloy-metals.com

WooCommerce, Jetpack and Siteground are all trying to figure it out.

Has anyone else had problems with Cloudflare interfering with their site?

Considering that link cant be behind Cloudflare in the first place, I’d assume you are referring to www.alloy-metals.com, right? That site seems to be hosted by Siteground and I assume you are using their Cloudflare partnership for your site, correct?

Yes, I am Hosted by SiteGround and use Cloudflare via SiteGround.

Somehow, Cloudflare appears to be interfering with the api.

Are you referring to that message?

{“error”:“forbidden”,“message”:“The Jetpack site is inaccessible or returned an error: transport error - HTTP status code was not 200 (403) [-32300]”}

If so, I’d assume whatever service that is, it is blocked by Cloudflare’s security system. Can you allowlist its IP address?

I do not know much about Cloudflare, but I would assume you could whitelist an IP. Jetpack sent me to this link for CF, but when I went to check these settings, they were all default, nothing special.

I also get this error with regularity… here is my screenshot.

So far, Cloudflare is more of a problem than a solution.
