Question: Recommended to use preflight requests for APIs behind Cloudflare? #280

Closed Legogris closed 4 years ago

I am consuming several APIs (not web pages) which requires cloudscraper to work consistently. So far with the v1 version, I have issuing a preflight request with cloudscraper before every API call and then proceeded to store the returned headers for the actual request, which is fetched normally.

What's the recommended approach here when upgrading to v4 - continue doing that or using the cloudscraper-wrapped request-promise for requesting URLs directly?
