Clear Cloudflare cache from command line.

cache-clear.sh

#!/bin/bash
curl -X POST "https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/zones/{$ZONE_ID}/purge_cache" \
     -H "X-Auth-Email: {$EMAIL}" \
     -H "X-Auth-Key: {$API_KEY}" \
     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     --data '{"purge_everything":true}'

Works like a charm. Thanks!

Great thanks alot ! I just used POST (because that's how its written in the documentation) instead of DELETE and worked instantly.

They must have changed it, I'll update the gist accordingly.

thanks again, saved me some time!

Thank you...

Fantastic, I had to remove the X-Auth-Email and X-Auth-Key and replace with the authorization Cloudflare generated.

#!/bin/bash
curl -X POST "https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/zones/{$ZONE_ID}/purge_cache" \
     -H "Authorization: Bearer {$API_TOKEN}" \
     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     --data '{"purge_everything":true}'

How to use this for custom purge? URL based

@bluegreen08 Most likely like this:

curl -X POST "https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/zones/{$ZONE_ID}/purge_cache" \
     -H "X-Auth-Email: {$EMAIL}" \
     -H "X-Auth-Key: {$API_KEY}" \
     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     --data '{"prefixes":["www.example.com/foo","images.example.com/bar/baz"]}'

I realized this is tied to mu specific email. Is there a way to have this command and use a service token or service account?
