## Use it in a design

```yaml
nodes:
  - { id: "cloudflare-access", component: "cloudflare-access" }
```

## Source (`component` YAML, verbatim)

```yaml
# yaml-language-server: $schema=../../schema/component.schema.json
# Cloudflare Access: managed ZTNA reverse proxy that authenticates every request to an application.
# "Session management" gives 24 hours as the default global and application session duration; MFA is
# an opt-in policy requirement ("Enforce MFA"), so it is not a default.
