# Enable or Disable a Hostname for Client Authentication
PUT/zones/{zone\_id}/origin\_tls\_client\_auth/hostnames
Associate a hostname to a certificate and enable, disable or invalidate the association. If disabled, client certificate will not be sent to the hostname even if activated at the zone level. 100 maximum associations on a single certificate are allowed. Note: Use a null value for parameter *enabled* to invalidate the association.

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. When possible, use API tokens instead of Global API keys.
