Ray IDs are particularly useful when evaluating Security Events for patterns or false positives or more generally understanding your application traffic.

Ray IDs are added as a [request header, cf-ray](/fundamentals/reference/http-headers/#cf-ray), to the connection from Cloudflare to the origin web server.

Ray IDs are not guaranteed to be unique for every request. In some situations, different requests may have the same Ray ID.
