While the term 'Global API Key' implies full access, Cloudflare's current best practice is to use API Tokens. When creating an API Token, you can select predefined templates or create custom tokens with specific permissions for different Cloudflare services and zones. This allows for fine-grained control over what actions the token can perform, effectively managing its 'permissions'.
