cloudflare.net

What is the issue you’re encountering

One of my subdomain CNAME is pointing to an unknown cloudflare.net subdomain

What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?

One of my subdomain CNAME is pointing to an unknown cloudflare.net subdomain in the form zxy1234.cloudflare.net.
I cannot find what this subdomain is linked to. I know that in the end it serves a frontend application stored in an s3 bucket (which I have access to), but can’t figure out where the dots connect.
I have looked in all Cloudflare services I could think off, including workers & pages but didn’t find anything

What feature, service or problem is this related to?

I don’t know

Is the record in the form of {your-hostname} -> {your-hostname}.cdn.cloudflare.net?

There is likely an account on Cloudflare that is active for management of a CNAME setup zone and that account will have a DNS record in it which points the same cNAME to the origin. You will want to check internally with your teams to see who manages it if you want to edit or control the settings associated with it.

Never mind, this is me needing better reading glasses, the domain is xxx.cloudfront.net not cloudflare.net… That makes a lot more sense!
Apologies for the trouble.
