If you're forgotten your Cloudflare credentials, see here for possible recovery: https://developers.cloudflare.com/support/account-management-billing/common-account-questions/login-and-account-issues/

If you've lost access to your Cloudflare account but still have control over your AWS resources, you can remove the Cloudflare configuration by following these steps:

  • Identify the Cloudflare-related settings: Determine the Cloudflare-related settings on your AWS resources. These settings typically include changes made to DNS records or configurations in your load balancer or proxy settings.

  • Modify DNS records: Access your DNS provider, which could be either AWS Route 53 or another DNS service. Locate the DNS records associated with your domain and modify them to point directly to your AWS resources instead of using Cloudflare's DNS.

  • Update load balancer or proxy settings: If you have a load balancer or proxy configured in AWS (e.g., an Application Load Balancer or NGINX proxy), review the settings to remove any references or dependencies on Cloudflare. Update the necessary configurations to reflect direct connections to your AWS resources.

  • Verify connectivity: After updating DNS records and load balancer/proxy settings, verify the connectivity to your AWS resources directly. You should be able to access your resources without traffic going through Cloudflare.

    • Optional Step: Disable Cloudflare-related AWS integrations: If you had integrated Cloudflare with specific AWS services, such as AWS WAF or AWS Shield, review and remove any configurations related to Cloudflare.

Keep in mind that these steps assume you have full control over your AWS resources and access to their configurations. If you face any difficulties during the process, it may be helpful to consult the AWS documentation or seek support from AWS customer service.
