Automatic script for Mikrotik RouterOS updating record on CloudFlare.
#########################################################################
# ================================================== #
# $ Mikrotik RouterOS update script for CloudFlare $ #
# ================================================== #
# #
# - You need a CloudFlare account & api key (look under settings), #
# a zone and A record in it #
# - All variables in first section are obvious, except CFid, #
# To obtain CFzoneid use following command in any unix shell: #
# curl -X GET "https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/accounts" -H "X-Auth-Email: YOUR_EMAIL" -H "X-Auth-Key: YOUR_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" | python -mjson.tool
# To obtain CFid use following command in any unix shell: #
# curl -X GET "https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/zones/YOUR_ZONE_ID/dns_records" -H "X-Auth-Email: YOUR_EMAIL" -H "X-Auth-Key: YOUR_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" | python -mjson.tool
# - Enable CFDebug if needed - it'll print some info to logs #
# - Put script under /system scripts giving "read" policy access. #
# For 6.29 and older "test" policy is also needed. #
# - Add script to /system scheduler using it's name in "on-event" #
# - Requires at least RouterOS 6.44beta75 for multiple header support #

For anyone finding this post, I was able to update the script further and it's available here
It was giving authentication errors for me.
