Turn off Auto Minify via API

If your site is still using deprecated features for Auto Minify, turn off Auto Minify via API.

You will need an API token with the following permissions:

  • Zone > Zone Settings > Edit
  • Zone > Zone Settings > Read

To check your zone's Auto Minify status, send a GET request to the /zones/{zone_id}/settings/minify endpoint.

Terminal window
curl "https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/zones/{zone_id}/settings/minify" \
--header "Authorization: Bearer <API_TOKEN>"
{
"result": {
"id": "minify",
"value": { "css": "off", "html": "off", "js": "off" },
"modified_on": null,
"editable": true
},
"success": true,
"errors": [],
"messages": []
}

If any of the values in the highlighted line are "on", then you need to turn them off.

To turn off Auto Minify for your zone, send a PATCH request to the /zones/{zone_id}/settings/minify endpoint. The value for success in the response should be true.

Terminal window
curl --request PATCH \
"https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/zones/{zone_id}/settings/minify" \
--header "Authorization: Bearer <API_TOKEN>" \
--header "Content-Type: application/json" \
--data '{ "value": { "css": "off","html": "off","js": "off" } }'
{
"result": {
"id": "minify",
"value": { "js": "off", "css": "off", "html": "off" },
"modified_on": "2024-11-15T19:32:20.882640Z",
"editable": true
},
"success": true,
"errors": [],
"messages": []
}
