Managing just a subdomain in cloudflare, and proxis not workinge

Getting Started
#1

Hello, I’m using cloudflare just to manage my subdomain app.foo.com

So I registered with cloudflare with foo.com, went to my domain, created the cloudflare NS records for app.foo.com to cloudflare.
Then went to cloudflare, created in the first istance an A record pointing to app.foo.com, ticking the “proxy” box, but my requests are not being proxied, only DNS records are resolved.

It is using the correct NS records since my queries point to cloudflare nameservers,

I am afraid it’s not clear what you actually configured.

Unless you are on a Business plan you cannot add random hosts to Cloudflare, especially not with NS records. You can only add your entire domain to Cloudflare.

What’s the domain and what’s the hostname?
