What is CF Studio?
CF Studio is a native macOS app for managing your Cloudflare data in one place. Browse your Workers KV namespaces, open D1 databases, view tables and rows, edit fields, run SQL, and track usage analytics — without switching between dashboards or writing API requests by hand.
Do I need a Cloudflare account and API token?
Yes. CF Studio is a client for your own Cloudflare account — it connects directly to Cloudflare’s API using your Account ID and an API token. You bring your own account; CF Studio doesn’t resell or proxy Cloudflare.
How do I connect my account?
Enter your Cloudflare Account ID and an API token in the app. Scope the token to just what CF Studio needs (see below). Once connected, your namespaces and databases appear in the sidebar.
What API token permissions does it need?
Create a Cloudflare API token scoped to just what CF Studio uses — nothing more:
- Workers KV Storage — Read & Write
- D1 — Read & Write
- Account Analytics — Read
You can create and revoke tokens anytime in the Cloudflare dashboard under My Profile → API Tokens.
Where are my credentials and data stored?
CF Studio is local-first. Your API token is kept in the macOS Keychain on your Mac, and your KV and D1 data travels directly between your Mac and Cloudflare over an encrypted connection. We don’t run a server, and we don’t collect, store, or see your data.
More detail is in the Privacy Policy.
Can I edit rows and run SQL queries?
Yes. You can inspect and edit row fields in a side editor, and open a SQL console to run statements against any D1 database, with results shown right below the editor.
Keep in mind that edits, deletes, and SQL run against your live Cloudflare data and can be irreversible — back up anything important before making changes.
What does it cost?
CF Studio is a one-time purchase on the Mac App Store — there are no subscriptions and no in-app purchases. See the App Store listing for the current price.
Which Cloudflare products does it support?
CF Studio focuses on Workers KV and D1. You can work with multiple KV namespaces and D1 databases across your account, browse tables and rows, and view per-database analytics — queries, rows read and written, storage used, and table count.
Is CF Studio affiliated with Cloudflare?
No. CF Studio is an independent app and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Cloudflare, Inc. “Cloudflare”, “Workers KV”, and “D1” are trademarks of Cloudflare, Inc., used only to describe what the app works with.
