API Token

The preferred authorization scheme for interacting with the Cloudflare API. Create a token. **Example:**Authorization: Bearer Sn3lZJTBX6kkg7OdcBUAxOO963GEIyGQqnFTOFYY

API Email + API Key

The previous authorization scheme for interacting with the Cloudflare API, used in conjunction with a Global API key. **Example:**X-Auth-Email: user@example.com The previous authorization scheme for interacting with the Cloudflare API.
