> For anyone still having this issue, the easiest fix is using the flexible SSL mode in Cloudflare settings and disable “force https” in your `fly.toml` config

Notice that this approach does not work with shared IP-v4, you will need to create an AAAA record in Cloudflare and connect the IP-v6 IP with the proxy option. Cloudflare will automatically create an A record that points to the Cloudflare servers.

This is required because the shared ips use the host to route traffic, they don’t work in Cloudflare DNS.
