CLoudFlare API Token

Go to CF API Tokens and then create a token. Select the edit zone DNS template and create one for each root domain you want to add to scale's ACME section.

cf-tokens-template-edit-zone-create-token

Under Create token, edit the name for this token and give it a good name for example token-xstar97thenoob.

Add both a zone DNS edit and read permissions.

Add a specific domain to the Zone Resources.
