I am trying to set up server side Google Tag Manager (GTM) but it required the addition of both A Records and a CNAME record which does not seem to be possible via Cloudflare.
Does this mean that I can not set up Server Side GTM via Cloudflare.
It’s possible, as you’re following appropriate DNS standards.
Those A and AAAA records don’t look to have enough data to create a record. It needs a hostname and an IP address.
Thanks for responding. I have a hostname and the IP address has been greyed out. When I enter the details into Cloudflare and attempt to add the CNAME, Cloudflare refuses to add the CNAME as an A Record exists.
I know some hosts can manually amend this setting and was wondering if the same is possible with Cloudflare.
You can’t have a CNAME with the same hostname as an “A” record. Nor should there be any reason to do so.
For reference, here’s the RFC for that:
