Hello! If my DNS is not hosted on Cloudflare, how does one move their application to Cloudflare Pages without incurring downtime?
There is no “TXT” verification record that I can find, either in the Pages UI or the pages add_domain api response (https://developers.cloudflare.com/api/operations/pages-domains-add-domain
), or any option to upload a custom SSL cert beforehand. Not having a zero downtime migration is kinda disappointing, as this is something Netlify and Vercel both offer out of the box (eg: https://vercel.com/guides/zero-downtime-migration
).
Is there something I’m missing in the Cloudflare Documentation, or is this just not a supported feature at this time? If it is not supported, is this something at least on the roadmap? I see that other Cloudflare products support this https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-for-platforms/cloudflare-for-saas/domain-support/hostname-verification/
, so it doesn’t really seem like an unfair request.
