Sync up key areas of Documentation to exclude inconsistencies.
I like the product, but you caused quite a bit of pain and confusion with such inconsistencies as shown below. There are more. It's pretty sloppy. Please sync up these areas of documentation (cli help and config notes). Thanks.
(version 3.11.2)
// ddclient --help (cloudflare section) // login=service-login ## login email when using a global API key password=service-password ## Global API key, or an API token. If using an API token, it must have the permissions "Zone - DNS - Edit" and "Zone - Zone - Read". The Zone resources must be "Include - All zones".
// ddclient.conf (cloudflare section) // #login=your-login-email, \ # Only needed if you are using your global API key. If you are using an API token, set it to "token" (without double quotes). #password=APIKey \ # This is either your global API key, or an API token. If you are using an API token, it must have the permissions "Zone - DNS - Edit" and "Zone - Zone - Read". The Zone resources must be "Include - All zones".
Also note: "Include - All zones" was not strictly necessary for me. "Specific Zone" worked just fine.
