Cloudflare Workers KV

Last updated Oct 12, 2026 Create a global, low-latency, key-value data storage.

Available on Free and Paid plans

Workers KV is a data storage that allows you to store and retrieve data globally. With Workers KV, you can build dynamic and performant APIs and websites that support high read volumes with low latency.

For example, you can use Workers KV for:

  • Caching API responses.
  • Storing user configurations / preferences.
  • Storing user authentication details.

Access your Workers KV namespace from Cloudflare Workers using Workers Bindings or from your external application using the REST API:

export default {
    async fetch(request, env, ctx): Promise<Response> {
        // write a key-value pair
        await env.KV.put('KEY', 'VALUE');

        // read a key-value pair
        const value = await env.KV.get('KEY');

        // list all key-value pairs
        const allKeys = await env.KV.list();

        // delete a key-value pair
        await env.KV.delete('KEY');

        // return a Workers response
        return new Response(
            JSON.stringify({
                value: value,
                allKeys: allKeys,
            }),
        );
    },

} satisfies ExportedHandler<{ KV: KVNamespace }>;

Features

Key-value storage

Learn how Workers KV stores and retrieves data.

Use Key-value storage

Wrangler

The Workers command-line interface, Wrangler, allows you to create, test, and deploy your Workers projects.

Use Wrangler

Bindings

Bindings allow your Workers to interact with resources on the Cloudflare developer platform, including R2, Durable Objects, and D1.

Use Bindings

Jurisdictions

Restrict a KV namespace to durably store data only within a specific jurisdiction to help meet compliance requirements.

Use Jurisdictions

R2

Cloudflare R2 Storage allows developers to store large amounts of unstructured data without the costly egress bandwidth fees associated with typical cloud storage services.

Durable Objects

Cloudflare Durable Objects allows developers to access scalable compute and permanent, consistent storage.

D1

Built on SQLite, D1 is Cloudflare’s first queryable relational database. Create an entire database by importing data or defining your tables and writing your queries within a Worker or through the API.
