# Cloudflare

[<mark style="color:blue;">Cloudflare</mark>](https://www.cloudflare.com/) is a global network designed to make everything you connect to the Internet secure, private, fast, and reliable.

Route detailed alerts from Cloudflare to the right users in Squadcast.

### Using Cloudflare as an Alert Source

{% hint style="warning" %} <mark style="color:orange;">**Important**</mark>**:**

When an alert source turns <mark style="color:green;">Active</mark>, it’ll show up under Configured Alert Sources. You can either generate a test alert from the integration or wait for a real-time alert to be generated by the Alert Source.\
\
An Alert Source is <mark style="color:green;">active</mark> if there is a recorded incident via that Alert Source for the Service.
{% endhint %}

That's it, you are good to go! Your Cloudflare integration is now complete.

Whenever Cloudflare fires an alert, an incident will be created in Squadcast for it. Also, when the **Health check monitor** is **UP** in Cloudflare, the corresponding incident gets **auto-resolved** in Squadcast.
