How to Add Users to a Cloudflare Account

Adding users on Cloudflare is a simple task and can be done from any device that has an internet connection. When you add a user, they will have access to Cloudflare security services. However, only super administrators have the right to add users to an account.

In this article, we’ll show you how to add users on Cloudflare.

How to Add a User to a Cloudflare Account Using a PC

For this method, you’ll be using your browser to add a user. To do so, follow these steps:

1. In the Dashboard, find and select the “Members” tab at the top of the page.
   
2. In the text box that says “Invite members,” type the email addresses of anyone you wish to invite to the Cloudflare account. Make sure to put a comma between each email address.
   
3. Select the “Invite.”
   
4. To accept an invite, you’ll need to access the email from Cloudflare.
   
5. Click on the link, then log in with your Cloudflare details, then select “Join.” You are now successfully a part of the Cloudflare account.
   

How to Add a User to a Cloudflare Account Using an iPhone

Using Cloudflare on an iPhone takes a little more work than on a PC. First, you’ll need to connect to the Cloudflare servers with your device and configure your DNS settings. To do so, follow these steps:

1. Go to the “Settings” menu by tapping on the icon.
   
2. Tap “Wi-Fi,” then tap the small “i” icon on the right of your router’s name.
   
3. In this menu, find the “Configure DNS” tab and tap it. Then switch from “Automatic” to “Manual.”
   
4. Under the “DNS Servers,” tap the “Add Server” option with the green “+” symbol.
   
5. Enter the following IP address: 1.1.1.1
   
6. After entering the IP address, tap “Add Server” again and enter the following: 1.0.0.1
   
7. At the top right corner, tap the “Save” option.
   
8. Exit the settings menu. Your device should be connected to Cloudflare now. If it isn’t, you may need to clear your DNS cache to get it to work correctly.

Doing this offers a bit more privacy protection, which you will want when logging in to your Cloudflare account. To add users to your Cloudflare account, follow these steps:

1. In the Dashboard, find and select the “Members” tab at the top of the page.
   
2. In the text box that says “Invite members,” type the email addresses of anyone you wish to invite to the Cloudflare account. Make sure to put a comma between each email address.
   
3. Select “Invite.”
   
4. To accept an invite, you’ll need to go to your email and open the email from Cloudflare.
   
5. Click on the link, then log in with your Cloudflare details, then select “Join.” You are now successfully a part of the Cloudflare account.

2. In the “Wi-Fi” menu, scroll to the bottom of your router list and select “More Settings.”

5. Select the “Static” option.
   
6. Scroll down until you see “DNS 1” and “DNS 2.”
   
7. You will need to change the digits. Before you do, write down the numbers that are there in case you want to switch back to these servers.
8. Under “DNS 1,” enter 1.1.1.1. Under “DNS 2” enter 1.0.0.1
   
9. Tap “Save.” You are now connected to the Cloudflare servers.

Like adding users, removing users can only be done by the super administrator. Here’s how to remove users from your Cloudflare account:

1. Select the “Members” tab at the top of the page.
