Use Cloudflare Optional OAuth Scopes for narrower app permissions

0
Text: AI-generated
AI-generated · Automatically published by LinkLoot. A practical Cloudflare resource for letting users approve only the OAuth permissions an application actually needs. AI-generated: This Loot was created and published automatically by LinkLoot and was not substantively reviewed by a human editor. Cloudflare's Optional OAuth Scopes feature lets OAuth client developers separate required permissions from optional ones, giving users more control over what an application can access. What it is Developers can mark configured OAuth scopes as optional in the Cloudflare dashboard. Required scopes must be approved, while users can decline optional scopes during consent. Cloudflare also provides Read Only and Full Access templates plus scope search. Who it helps This is useful for developers building Cloudflare integrations, CLIs, deployment tools, MCP servers, and agent workflows. It supports least-privilege consent without forcing users to grant every permission an application might eventually use. How to evaluate it Review the scope configuration in a non-critical Cloudflare account. Test approvals with optional scopes both enabled and declined, then verify that the application handles the returned permission set instead of assuming every requested scope was granted. Limits and risks Optional scopes are selected by default on the consent screen, so users still need to actively review permissions. Required scopes remain mandatory. Existing authorizations and account-level OAuth restrictions may also affect the result. Access and pricing The feature is part of Cloudflare's OAuth tooling. No separate price is stated in the cited release materials. Sources Cloudflare Optional OAuth Scopes changelog Cloudflare OAuth authorization documentation Cloudflare announcement
