Add Mesh participants with guided onboarding

Cloudflare Mesh now makes it faster to add and manage participants from the dashboard. Select Add participant from Networking > Mesh to deploy a Mesh node or find the information needed to connect a client device.

The updated dashboard includes the following improvements:

• More Mesh node deployment options — Install a node on Linux, Kubernetes, Docker Compose, or Docker CLI. The dashboard provides requirements, commands, configuration, and links for each method. Refer to Run Mesh in Docker / Kubernetes for container deployment details.
• Client device installation guidance — Access platform-specific Cloudflare One Client installers, mobile QR codes, and your Cloudflare One organization name. Use the organization name to log in from the client after installation.
• Unified participant management — View Mesh nodes and enrolled client devices in one table. Search devices, filter participants by type or status, open device details, and load additional results from each participant source. If one source fails, participants from the other source remain available while you retry the request.

You must still install the Cloudflare One Client, log in to your organization, and test the connection.
