D1Row count now returned per query2023-08-19

D1 now returns a count of rows_written and rows_read for every query executed, allowing you to assess the cost of query for both pricing and index optimization purposes.

The meta object returned in D1’s Client API contains a total count of the rows read (rows_read) and rows written (rows_written) by that query. For example, a query that performs a full table scan (for example, SELECT * FROM users) from a table with 5000 rows would return a rows_read value of 5000:


"meta": {
"duration": 0.20472300052642825,
"size_after": 45137920,
"rows_read": 5000,
"rows_written": 0
}

Refer to D1 pricing documentation to understand how reads and writes are measured. D1 remains free to use during the alpha period.

D1Bind D1 from the Cloudflare dashboard2023-08-09

You can now bind a D1 database to your Workers directly in the Cloudflare dashboard. To bind D1 from the Cloudflare dashboard, select your Worker project -> Settings -> Variables -> and select D1 Database Bindings.

Note: If you have previously deployed a Worker with a D1 database binding with a version of wrangler prior to 3.5.0, you must upgrade to wrangler v3.5.0 first before you can edit your D1 database bindings in the Cloudflare dashboard. New Workers projects do not have this limitation.

Legacy D1 alpha users who had previously prefixed their database binding manually with __D1_BETA__ should remove this as part of this upgrade. Your Worker scripts should call your D1 database via env.BINDING_NAME only. Refer to the latest D1 getting started guide for best practices.

We recommend all D1 alpha users begin using wrangler 3.5.0 (or later) to benefit from improved TypeScript types and future D1 API improvements.

StreamScheduled Deletion2023-08-08

Stream now supports adding a scheduled deletion date to new and existing videos. Live inputs support deletion policies for automatic recording deletion.

For more, refer to the video on demand or live input docs.

D1New default storage subsystem2023-07-27

Databases created via the Cloudflare dashboard and Wrangler (as of v3.4.0) now use D1’s new storage subsystem by default. The new backend can be 6 - 20x faster than D1’s original alpha backend.

To understand which storage subsystem your database uses, run wrangler d1 info YOUR_DATABASE and inspect the version field in the output.

Databases with version: beta use the new storage backend and support the Time Travel API. Databases with version: alpha only use D1’s older, legacy backend.

D1Time Travel2023-07-27

Time Travel is now available. Time Travel allows you to restore a D1 database back to any minute within the last 30 days (Workers Paid plan) or 7 days (Workers Free plan), at no additional cost for storage or restore operations.

Refer to the Time Travel documentation to learn how to travel backwards in time.

Databases using D1’s new storage subsystem can use Time Travel. Time Travel replaces the snapshot-based backups used for legacy alpha databases.

  • Fixed a bug where calling GetBucket on a non-existent bucket would return a 500 instead of a 404.
  • Improved S3 compatibility for ListObjectsV1, now nextmarker is only set when truncated is true.
  • The R2 worker bindings now support parsing conditional headers with multiple etags. These etags can now be strong, weak or a wildcard. Previously the bindings only accepted headers containing a single strong etag.
  • S3 putObject now supports sha256 and sha1 checksums. These were already supported by the R2 worker bindings.
  • CopyObject in the S3 compatible api now supports Cloudflare specific headers which allow the copy operation to be conditional on the state of the destination object.
D1Deprecating Error.cause2023-06-12

As of wrangler v3.1.1 the D1 client API now returns detailed error messages within the top-level Error.message property, and no longer requires developers to inspect the Error.cause.message property.

To facilitate a transition from the previous Error.cause behaviour, detailed error messages will continue to be populated within Error.cause as well as the top-level Error object until approximately July 14th, 2023. Future versions of both wrangler and the D1 client API will no longer populate Error.cause after this date.

  • A new Hibernatable WebSockets API (beta) has been added to Durable Objects. The Hibernatable WebSockets API allows a Durable Object that is not currently running an event handler (for example, processing a WebSocket message or alarm) to be removed from memory while keeping its WebSockets connected (“hibernation”). A Durable Object that hibernates will not incur billable Duration (GB-sec) charges.
TurnstileTurnstile · 2023-05-252023-05-25
  • Added idempotency support for POST /siteverify requests via the idempotency_key parameter.
D1New experimental backend2023-05-19

D1 has a new experimental storage back end that dramatically improves query throughput, latency and reliability. The experimental back end will become the default back end in the near future. To create a database using the experimental backend, use wrangler and set the --experimental-backend flag when creating a database:


$ wrangler d1 create your-database --experimental-backend

Read more about the experimental back end in the announcement blog.

D1Location hints2023-05-19You can now provide a location hint when creating a D1 database, which will influence where the leader (writer) is located. By default, D1 will automatically create your database in a location close to where you issued the request to create a database. In most cases this allows D1 to choose the optimal location for your database on your behalf.
PagesBuild error message improvement2023-05-19

  • Bug fix: Requests to public buckets will now return the Content-Encoding header for gzip files when Accept-Encoding: gzip is used.
QueuesConsumer concurrency (upcoming)2023-03-15

Queue consumers will soon automatically scale up concurrently as a queues’ backlog grows in order to keep overall message processing latency down. Concurrency will be enabled on all existing queues by 2023-03-28.

To opt-out, or to configure a fixed maximum concurrency, set max_concurrency = 1 in your wrangler.toml file or via the queues dashboard.

To opt-in, you do not need to take any action: your consumer will begin to scale out as needed to keep up with your message backlog. It will scale back down as the backlog shrinks, and/or if a consumer starts to generate a higher rate of errors. To learn more about how consumers scale, refer to the consumer concurrency documentation.

QueuesExplicit acknowledgement (new feature)2023-03-02

You can now acknowledge individual messages with a batch by calling .ack() on a message.

This allows you to mark a message as delivered as you process it within a batch, and avoids the entire batch from being redelivered if your consumer throws an error during batch processing. This can be particularly useful when you are calling external APIs, writing messages to a database, or otherwise performing non-idempotent actions on individual messages within a batch.

StreamEarlier detection (and rejection) of non-video uploads2023-01-04

Cloudflare Stream now detects non-video content on upload using the POST API and returns a 400 Bad Request HTTP error with code 10059.

Previously, if you or one of your users attempted to upload a file that is not a video (ex: an image), the request to upload would appear successful, but then fail to be encoded later on.

With this change, Stream responds to the upload request with an error, allowing you to give users immediate feedback if they attempt to upload non-video content.

PagesAPI messaging update2022-12-15Updated all API messaging to be more helpful.
QueuessendBatch support2022-12-13The JavaScript API for Queue producers now includes a sendBatch method which supports sending up to 100 messages at a time.

StreamDeprecating the ‘per-video’ Analytics API2022-11-07

The “per-video” analytics API is being deprecated. If you still use this API, you will need to switch to using the GraphQL Analytics API by February 1, 2023. After this date, the per-video analytics API will be no longer available.

The GraphQL Analytics API provides the same functionality and more, with additional filters and metrics, as well as the ability to fetch data about multiple videos in a single request. Queries are faster, more reliable, and built on a shared analytics system that you can use across many Cloudflare products.

For more about this change and how to migrate existing API queries, refer to this post and the GraphQL Analytics API docs.

StreamMore accurate bandwidth estimates for live video playback2022-10-20

When playing live video, Cloudflare Stream now provides significantly more accurate estimates of the bandwidth needs of each quality level to client video players. This ensures that live video plays at the highest quality that viewers have adequate bandwidth to play.

As live video is streamed to Cloudflare, we transcode it to make it available to viewers at mulitple quality levels. During transcoding, we learn about the real bandwidth needs of each segment of video at each quality level, and use this to provide an estimate of the bandwidth requirements of each quality level the in HLS (.m3u8) and DASH (.mpd) manifests.

If a live stream contains content with low visual complexity, like a slideshow presentation, the bandwidth estimates provided in the HLS manifest will be lower, ensuring that the most viewers possible view the highest quality level, since it requires relatively little bandwidth. Conversely, if a live stream contains content with high visual complexity, like live sports with motion and camera panning, the bandwidth estimates provided in the HLS manifest will be higher, ensuring that viewers with inadequate bandwidth switch down to a lower quality level, and their playback does not buffer.

This change is particularly helpful if you’re building a platform or application that allows your end users to create their own live streams, where these end users have their own streaming software and hardware that you can’t control. Because this new functionality adapts based on the live video we receive, rather than just the configuration advertised by the broadcaster, even in cases where your end users’ settings are less than ideal, client video players will not receive excessively high estimates of bandwidth requirements, causing playback quality to decrease unnecessarily. Your end users don’t have to be OBS Studio experts in order to get high quality video playback.

No work is required on your end — this change applies to all live inputs, for all customers of Cloudflare Stream. For more, refer to the docs.

R2R2 · 2022-09-192022-09-19
  • The R2 put() binding options can now be given an onlyIf field, similar to get(), that performs a conditional upload.
  • The R2 delete() binding now supports deleting multiple keys at once.
  • The R2 put() binding now supports user-specified SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512 checksums in options.
  • User-specified object checksums will now be available in the R2 get() and head() bindings response. MD5 is included by default for non-multipart uploaded objects.
StreamManually control when you start and stop simulcasting2022-09-15You can now enable and disable individual live outputs via the API or Stream dashboard, allowing you to control precisely when you start and stop simulcasting to specific destinations like YouTube and Twitch. For more, read the docs.
PagesIncreased domain limits2022-09-12

Previously, all plans had a maximum of 10 custom domains per project.

Now, the limits are:

  • Free: 100 custom domains.
  • Pro: 250 custom domains.
  • Business and Enterprise: 500 custom domains.
PagesSupport for _routes.json2022-09-08

R2R2 · 2022-09-062022-09-06
  • The S3 CopyObject operation now includes x-amz-version-id and x-amz-copy-source-version-id in the response headers for consistency with other methods.
  • The ETag for multipart files uploaded until shortly after Open Beta uploaded now include the number of parts as a suffix.
PagesIncreased build log expiration time2022-08-25Build log expiration time increased from 2 weeks to 1 year.
R2R2 · 2022-08-172022-08-17
  • The S3 DeleteObjects operation no longer trims the space from around the keys before deleting. This would result in files with leading / trailing spaces not being able to be deleted. Additionally, if there was an object with the trimmed key that existed it would be deleted instead. The S3 DeleteObject operation was not affected by this.
  • Fixed presigned URL support for the S3 ListBuckets and ListObjects operations.
StreamUnique subdomain for your Stream Account2022-08-15

URLs in the Stream Dashboard and Stream API now use a subdomain specific to your Cloudflare Account: customer-{CODE}.cloudflarestream.com. This change allows you to:

  1. Use Content Security Policy (CSP) directives specific to your Stream subdomain, to ensure that only videos from your Cloudflare account can be played on your website.

  2. Allowlist only your Stream account subdomain at the network-level to ensure that only videos from a specific Cloudflare account can be accessed on your network.

No action is required from you, unless you use Content Security Policy (CSP) on your website. For more on CSP, read the docs.

PagesNew bindings supported2022-08-08
R2R2 · 2022-08-062022-08-06
  • Uploads will automatically infer the Content-Type based on file body if one is not explicitly set in the PutObject request. This functionality will come to multipart operations in the future.
StreamClip videos using the Stream API2022-08-02You can now change the start and end times of a video uploaded to Cloudflare Stream. For more information, refer to Clip videos.
R2R2 · 2022-07-302022-07-30
  • Fixed S3 conditionals to work properly when provided the LastModified date of the last upload, bindings fixes will come in the next release.
  • If-Match / If-None-Match headers now support arrays of ETags, Weak ETags and wildcard (*) as per the HTTP standard and undocumented AWS S3 behavior.

R2R2 · 2022-07-212022-07-21
  • Added dummy implementation of the following operation that mimics the response that a basic AWS S3 bucket will return when first created: GetBucketAcl.
R2R2 · 2022-07-202022-07-20
  • Added dummy implementations of the following operations that mimic the response that a basic AWS S3 bucket will return when first created:

    • GetBucketVersioning
    • GetBucketLifecycleConfiguration
    • GetBucketReplication
    • GetBucketTagging
    • GetObjectLockConfiguration
R2R2 · 2022-07-192022-07-19
  • Fixed an S3 compatibility issue for error responses with MinIO .NET SDK and any other tooling that expects no xmlns namespace attribute on the top-level Error tag.
  • List continuation tokens prior to 2022-07-01 are no longer accepted and must be obtained again through a new list operation.
  • The list() binding will now correctly return a smaller limit if too much data would otherwise be returned (previously would return an Internal Error).
R2R2 · 2022-07-142022-07-14
  • Improvements to 500s: we now convert errors, so things that were previously concurrency problems for some operations should now be TooMuchConcurrency instead of InternalError. We’ve also reduced the rate of 500s through internal improvements.
  • ListMultipartUpload correctly encodes the returned Key if the encoding-type is specified.
R2R2 · 2022-07-132022-07-13
  • S3 XML documents sent to R2 that have an XML declaration are not rejected with 400 Bad Request / MalformedXML.
  • Minor S3 XML compatibility fix impacting Arq Backup on Windows only (not the Mac version). Response now contains XML declaration tag prefix and the xmlns attribute is present on all top-level tags in the response.
  • Beta ListMultipartUploads support.
R2R2 · 2022-07-062022-07-06
  • Support the r2_list_honor_include compat flag coming up in an upcoming runtime release (default behavior as of 2022-07-14 compat date). Without that compat flag/date, list will continue to function implicitly as include: ['httpMetadata', 'customMetadata'] regardless of what you specify.
  • cf-create-bucket-if-missing can be set on a PutObject/CreateMultipartUpload request to implicitly create the bucket if it does not exist.
  • Fix S3 compatibility with MinIO client spec non-compliant XML for publishing multipart uploads. Any leading and trailing quotes in CompleteMultipartUpload are now optional and ignored as it seems to be the actual non-standard behavior AWS implements.
PagesAdded support for .dev.vars in wrangler pages2022-07-05

Pages now supports .dev.vars in wrangler pages, which allows you to use use environmental variables during your local development without chaining --envs.

This functionality requires Wrangler v2.0.16 or higher.

R2R2 · 2022-07-012022-07-01
  • Unsupported search parameters to ListObjects/ListObjectsV2 are now rejected with 501 Not Implemented.
  • Fixes for Listing:
    • Fix listing behavior when the number of files within a folder exceeds the limit (you’d end up seeing a CommonPrefix for that large folder N times where N = number of children within the CommonPrefix / limit).
    • Fix corner case where listing could cause objects with sharing the base name of a "folder" to be skipped.
    • Fix listing over some files that shared a certain common prefix.
  • DeleteObjects can now handle 1000 objects at a time.
  • S3 CreateBucket request can specify x-amz-bucket-object-lock-enabled with a value of false and not have the requested rejected with a NotImplemented error. A value of true will continue to be rejected as R2 does not yet support object locks.
R2R2 · 2022-06-172022-06-17
  • Fixed a regression for some clients when using an empty delimiter.
  • Added support for S3 pre-signed URLs.
R2R2 · 2022-06-162022-06-16
  • Fixed a regression in the S3 API UploadPart operation where TooMuchConcurrency & NoSuchUpload errors were being returned as NoSuchBucket.
PagesAdded deltas to wrangler pages publish2022-06-13

Pages has added deltas to wrangler pages publish.

We now keep track of the files that make up each deployment and intelligently only upload the files that we have not seen. This means that similar subsequent deployments should only need to upload a minority of files and this will hopefully make uploads even faster.

This functionality requires Wrangler v2.0.11 or higher.

R2R2 · 2022-06-132022-06-13
  • Fixed a bug with the S3 API ListObjectsV2 operation not returning empty folder/s as common prefixes when using delimiters.
  • The S3 API ListObjectsV2 KeyCount parameter now correctly returns the sum of keys and common prefixes rather than just the keys.

  • Fixed a bug where the S3 API AbortMultipartUpload operation threw an error when called multiple times.
PagesAdded branch alias to PR comments2022-06-08
  • PR comments for Pages previews now include the branch alias.
R2R2 · 2022-05-272022-05-27
  • Fixed a bug where the S3 API’s PutObject or the .put() binding could fail but still show the bucket upload as successful.
  • If conditional headers are provided to S3 API UploadObject or CreateMultipartUpload operations, and the object exists, a 412 Precondition Failed status code will be returned if these checks are not met.
StreamPicture-in-Picture support2022-05-24

The Stream Player now displays a button to activate Picture-in-Picture mode, if the viewer’s web browser supports the Picture-in-Picture API.

R2R2 · 2022-05-202022-05-20
  • Fixed a bug when Accept-Encoding was being used in SignedHeaders when sending requests to the S3 API would result in a SignatureDoesNotMatch response.
R2R2 · 2022-05-172022-05-17
  • Fixed a bug where requests to the S3 API were not handling non-encoded parameters used for the authorization signature.
  • Fixed a bug where requests to the S3 API where number-like keys were being parsed as numbers instead of strings.
R2R2 · 2022-05-162022-05-16
  • Add support for S3 virtual-hosted style paths, such as <BUCKET>.<ACCOUNT_ID>.r2.cloudflarestorage.com instead of path-based routing (<ACCOUNT_ID>.r2.cloudflarestorage.com/<BUCKET>).
  • Implemented GetBucketLocation for compatibility with external tools, this will always return a LocationConstraint of auto.
StreamCreator ID property2022-05-13

R2R2 · 2022-05-062022-05-06
  • S3 API GetObject ranges are now inclusive (bytes=0-0 will correctly return the first byte).
  • S3 API GetObject partial reads return the proper 206 Partial Content response code.
  • Copying from a non-existent key (or from a non-existent bucket) to another bucket now returns the proper NoSuchKey / NoSuchBucket response.
  • The S3 API now returns the proper Content-Type: application/xml response header on relevant endpoints.
  • Multipart uploads now have a -N suffix on the etag representing the number of parts the file was published with.
  • UploadPart and UploadPartCopy now return proper error messages, such as TooMuchConcurrency or NoSuchUpload, instead of ‘internal error’.

R2R2 · 2022-05-032022-05-03
  • Pagination cursors are no longer returned when the keys in a bucket is the same as the MaxKeys argument.
  • The S3 API ListBuckets operation now accepts cf-max-keys, cf-start-after and cf-continuation-token headers behave the same as the respective URL parameters.
  • The S3 API ListBuckets and ListObjects endpoints now allow per_page to be 0.
