New updates and improvements at Cloudflare.

Regional Data in Cloudflare Radar

Radar now introduces Regional Data, providing traffic insights that bring a more localized perspective to the traffic trends shown on Radar.

The following API endpoints are now available:

All summary and timeseries_groups endpoints in HTTP and NetFlows now include an adm1 dimension for grouping data by first level administrative division (for example, state, province, etc.)

A new filter geoId was also added to all endpoints in HTTP and NetFlows, allowing filtering by a specific administrative division.

Check out the new Regional traffic insights on a country specific traffic page new Radar page.

Certificate Transparency Insights in Cloudflare Radar

Radar now introduces Certificate Transparency (CT) insights, providing visibility into certificate issuance trends based on Certificate Transparency logs currently monitored by Cloudflare.

The following API endpoints are now available:

For the summary and timeseries_groups endpoints, the following dimensions are available (and also usable as filters):

  • ca: Certification Authority (certificate issuer)
  • ca_owner: Certification Authority Owner
  • duration: Certificate validity duration (between NotBefore and NotAfter dates)
  • entry_type: Entry type (certificate vs. pre-certificate)
  • expiration_status: Expiration status (valid vs. expired)
  • has_ips: Presence of IP addresses in certificate Subject Alternative Names (SANs)
  • has_wildcards: Presence of wildcard DNS names in certificate SANs
  • log: CT log name
  • log_api: CT log API (RFC6962 vs. Static)
  • log_operator: CT log operator
  • public_key_algorithm: Public key algorithm of certificate's key
  • signature_algorithm: Signature algorithm used by CA to sign certificate
  • tld: Top-level domain for DNS names found in certificates SANs
  • validation_level: Validation level

Bot & Crawler Insights in Cloudflare Radar

Web crawlers insights

Radar now offers expanded insights into web crawlers, giving you greater visibility into aggregated trends in crawl and refer activity.

We have introduced the following endpoints:

These endpoints allow analysis across the following dimensions:

  • user_agent: Parsed data from the User-Agent header.
  • referer: Parsed data from the Referer header.
  • crawl_refer_ratio: Ratio of HTML page crawl requests to HTML page referrals by platform.

Broader bot insights

In addition to crawler-specific insights, Radar now provides a broader set of bot endpoints:

These endpoints support filtering and breakdowns by:

  • bot: Bot name.
  • bot_operator: The organization or entity operating the bot.
  • bot_category: Classification of bot type.

The previously available verified_bots endpoints have now been deprecated in favor of this set of bot insights APIs. While current data still focuses on verified bots, we plan to expand support for unverified bot traffic in the future.

Leaked Credentials Insights in Cloudflare Radar

Radar has expanded its security insights, providing visibility into aggregate trends in authentication requests, including the detection of leaked credentials through leaked credentials detection scans.

We have now introduced the following endpoints:

The following dimensions are available, displaying the distribution of HTTP authentication requests based on:

  • compromised: Credential status (clean vs. compromised).
  • bot_class: Bot class (human vs. bot).

DNS Insights in Cloudflare Radar

Radar has expanded its DNS insights, providing visibility into aggregated traffic and usage trends observed by our 1.1.1.1 DNS resolver. In addition to global, location, and ASN traffic trends, we are also providing perspectives on protocol usage, query/response characteristics, and DNSSEC usage.

Previously limited to the top locations and ASes endpoints, we have now introduced the following endpoints:

For the summary and timeseries_groups endpoints, the following dimensions are available, displaying the distribution of DNS queries based on:

  • cache_hit: Cache status (hit vs. miss).
  • dnsssec: DNSSEC support status (secure, insecure, invalid or other).
  • dnsssec_aware: DNSSEC client awareness (aware vs. not-aware).
  • dnsssec_e2e: End-to-end security (secure vs. insecure).
  • ip_version: IP version (IPv4 vs. IPv6).
  • matching_answer: Matching answer status (match vs. no-match).
  • protocol: Transport protocol (UDP, TLS, HTTPS or TCP).
  • query_type: Query type (A, AAAA, PTR, etc.).
  • response_code: Response code (NOERROR, NXDOMAIN, REFUSED, etc.).
  • response_ttl: Response TTL.

Expanded AI insights in Cloudflare Radar

Radar has expanded its AI insights with new API endpoints for Internet services rankings, robots.txt analysis, and AI inference data.

Internet services ranking

Radar now provides rankings for Internet services, including Generative AI platforms, based on anonymized 1.1.1.1 resolver data. Previously limited to the annual Year in Review, these insights are now available daily via the API, through the following endpoints:

Robots.txt

Radar now analyzes robots.txt files from the top 10,000 domains, identifying AI bot access rules. AI-focused user agents from ai.robots.txt are categorized as:

  • Fully allowed/disallowed if directives apply to all paths (*).
  • Partially allowed/disallowed if restrictions apply to specific paths.

These insights are now available weekly via the API, through the following endpoints:

Workers AI

Radar now provides insights into public AI inference models from Workers AI, tracking usage trends across models and tasks. These insights are now available via the API, through the following endpoints:
