How to set up Cloudflare load balancer with DigitalOcean Application

Posted on October 14, 2025

Hello! I have another server for my application outside DigitalOcean and want to use Cloudflare load balancer to ensure stability and performance in different regions.

I have set up a static ingress IP for my app in DigitalOcean and use it in the load balancer along with host header, however I keep getting 1000 Cloudflare error when connecting to it, because the ingress IP is of Cloudflare network.

What are the ways to use Cloudflare load balancer in this case?
