# Cloudflare data source

The Cloudflare data source allows you to query and visualize data from Cloudflare in Grafana, including DNS analytics and Cloudflare Radar data.

> Note
> 
> Cloudflare data source plugin is currently in [public preview](/docs/release-life-cycle/). Grafana Labs offers limited support, and breaking changes might occur prior to the feature being made generally available.

> Note
> 
> The Cloudflare data source is an Enterprise plugin. It’s available with Grafana Cloud (Free, Pro, and Advanced tiers) and Grafana Enterprise. For installation instructions, refer to [Install Grafana Enterprise plugins](/docs/grafana/latest/administration/plugin-management/#install-grafana-enterprise-plugins).

- A Cloudflare account with an API token (user tokens only; account-owned tokens aren’t supported)
- A [Grafana Cloud](/pricing/) account or an [activated Grafana Enterprise license](/docs/grafana/latest/administration/enterprise-licensing/)
