@mitchross Did you ever get further on this? Have been following your troubleshooting steps and trying to pin point things myself as well. I’ve got the majority of my services exposed via CF Tunnels & Teams.

Im glad you asked because I gave up since I figured it was impossible. Looks like its finally resolved. https://github.com/cloudflare/cloudflared/issues/526
