Ask HN: Has anybody had luck making Webflow work behind Cloudflare? 4 years ago
I don't use it behind Cloudflare, but I was able to get Nginx reverse-proxying traffic to Webflow. Here's part of that config:
upstream webflow {
server proxy-ssl.webflow.com:443;
}
location @webflow {
resolver <some DNS server here>;
proxy_pass https://webflow;
proxy_set_header Host $webflow_host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $corrected_proxy_scheme;
proxy_ssl_verify off;
proxy_ssl_session_reuse on;
proxy_ssl_server_name on;
proxy_ssl_name $webflow_host;
}
Elsewhere (a Lua script), I set the $webflow_host variable and URI for the request, which is exec-ed from that Lua script (which is basically an internal redirect to the @webflow location block).
