I recently asked if I could write my own cdn for my website : https://discord.com/channels/713503345364697088/1312083597397852220 . I implemented it for myself and locally it works just fine. But in production I have already encountered the problem that from backend to cdn request is blocked and throws 403 error (see screenshot) although service-key is correct.
The first time I had to deal with this problem for a very long time, I rewrote a lot of code from backend to cdn and could not understand what the problem was. In the end I realized that the problem is in cloudflare that it somehow does not work like that and stopping it for the site - everything began to work as it should.
Now I made a second attempt, I added a new rule for Cache Rules to not cache the domain cdn.netrix.fun, but this again did not help and sending a request from the backend - I still get a 403 error, and in the logs cdn this failed request is not even displayed (see the second screenshot).
I also tried to add an icon directly via Postman, I made a post request and the icon was successfully saved on cdn, but if I want to go to the url of the saved icon - I immediately get a 404 error that the file was not found.
I honestly do not know what to do.

Even now having stopped the cdn - I successfully sent a request to the backend - on the logs I saw that I got 201 code, that is the file was created and I follow the file link - and still get a 404 error.
Although when I make a request through Postman, absolutely at the same url - I get everything correctly

Okay, it's been a little while longer since I stopped cloudflare and now everything is working correctly. If I restart it, everything will crash again.

Hi, i'm sorry but we are unable to provide coding help here as that 403 is returned by your app, not the Railway platform.

Yeah, I realize that. I just thought that since railway interacts with cloudflare to at least be able to use its domain - maybe you know what the problem is and why cloudflare does not allow to make a request from backend to cdn

Railway doesn't interact with Cloudflare though, you interacted with Cloudflare yourself to set up the domain

Well, yes, I do, but I meant that Railway is the one that gives out the CNAME to be entered into the DNS on cloudflare.

Anyway, I guess I should take this cloudflare setup problem somewhere else.

Sorry we couldn't help, perhaps ask in a programming help community
