Why am I getting a dns_error when calling my VPC service?

This usually occurs because your cloudflared version is older than 2025.7.0 or you are using the http2 protocol instead of the required QUIC protocol.

Do I need to include port numbers in the fetch() URL for VPC services?

No, port numbers in the fetch() URL are ignored. Routing and port selection are determined by the VPC service configuration in the Cloudflare dashboard or API.

Can I use public hostnames for services inside my VPC?

You should use internal VPC hostnames to ensure traffic is correctly routed through the secure tunnel and does not leak to the public internet.

Which outbound port is required for Cloudflare VPC Services?

You must allow UDP port 7844 outbound to enable QUIC connections between your infrastructure and Cloudflare's network.

Configures and troubleshoots secure private API access for Cloudflare Workers via encrypted VPC service tunnels.

Acerca de

This skill provides specialized guidance for connecting Cloudflare Workers to private resources in AWS, Azure, GCP, or on-premise networks using Cloudflare VPC Services. It automates the complex setup of VPC service bindings and Cloudflare Tunnels while proactively preventing common pitfalls like DNS errors, protocol mismatches, and incorrect port handling. By enforcing best practices such as mandatory QUIC protocol usage and absolute URL formatting, it significantly reduces deployment time and token overhead for developers building secure, hybrid cloud applications.
