Enter the deployed worker address. It must be the backend API root URL, start with
https://, and must not include a trailing/. Click generate, and if successful, a download button will appear. You will get a zip package.- The worker domain here is the backend API domain. For example, if I deployed at
https://temp-email-api.awsl.uk, then fill inhttps://temp-email-api.awsl.uk - If your domain is
https://temp-email-api.xxx.workers.dev, then fill inhttps://temp-email-api.xxx.workers.dev - Do not enter your frontend
Pagesdomain, and do not include paths like/adminor/api. Otherwise frontend requests will hit the wrong address and you may seeCannot read properties of undefined (reading 'map')or405 Method Not Allowed - Before filling it in, open

[!warning] Note The
worker.devdomain is not accessible in China, please use a custom domain.Do not enable security policies such as Under Attack, Bot Fight, or Managed Challenge on the backend API domain. Frontend XHR requests cannot complete those browser challenges, and the common symptom is

You can also deploy manually. Download the zip from here: frontend.zip
Modify the index-xxx.js file in the archive, where xx is a random string
Search for
https://temp-email-api.xxx.xxxand replace it with your worker's backend API root URL, then deploy the new zip file. If you replace it with the frontend Pages domain, common symptoms are themaperror or405responses from API requestsIf you entered the wrong address the first time and still see errors after redeploying, test in an incognito window or clear browser cache so the browser stops using the old frontend assets.
