Cloudflare extends the Zone Settings Batch API end-of-life date

Cloudflare extended the Zone Settings Batch API end-of-life date from 15 September 2026 to 31 March 2027; callers must migrate from the batch GET/PATCH routes to per-setting endpoints before the new deadline.

Previous state

The Zone Settings Batch API was previously scheduled to reach end of life on 15 September 2026.

Current state

The deprecated GET /zones/{zone_id}/settings and PATCH /zones/{zone_id}/settings batch routes are now scheduled to reach end of life on 31 March 2027. Cloudflare directs callers to the corresponding per-setting GET and PATCH endpoints.

Who needs to care

Integrations that read or edit multiple zone settings through GET /zones/{zone_id}/settings or PATCH /zones/{zone_id}/settings.

What to do

Migrate to the per-setting GET /zones/{zone_id}/settings/{setting_id} and PATCH /zones/{zone_id}/settings/{setting_id} endpoints before 31 March 2027, and test multi-setting workflows against the resulting per-setting request pattern.

What the source does not prove

This is an extension of the existing Zone Settings Batch API deprecation deadline, not a new deprecation; the cited Cloudflare notice establishes the old and new end-of-life dates and the per-setting replacement routes.
