You can configure the Metadata Boundary to select the region where your logs and analytics are stored via API or dashboard.

Currently, this can only be applied at the account-level. If you only want the Metadata Boundary to be applied on a portion of zones beneath the same account, you will have to [move the rest of zones to a new account](https://developers.cloudflare.com/fundamentals/setup/manage-domains/move-domain/).

## Configure Customer Metadata Boundary in the dashboard

To configure Customer Metadata Boundary in the dashboard:

1. Log in to the [Cloudflare dashboard](https://dash.cloudflare.com/login) and select your account.
2. Go to **Manage Account** > **Configurations**.
3. In **Customer Metadata Boundary**, select the region you want to use. You have the option to select `EU` or `US`. If you want to select both regions, select `Global` instead.

## Configure Customer Metadata Boundary via API

You can also configure Customer Metadata Boundary via API.

Currently, only SuperAdmins and Admin roles can edit DLS configurations. Use the **Account-level Logs:Read/Write** API permissions for the `/logs/control/cmb` endpoint to read/write Customer Metadata Boundary configurations.

These are some examples of API requests.
