When we put the DNS of a webcallserver domain on Cloudflare, will it still work? Cloudflare uses its own certificates for domains and proxied ip's. How will this affect WCS ? Will it still be necessary to import a certificate in WCS and how can we do this if we do not have control over the SSL certificate itself?

Good day.
To do this, you can generate Cloudflare SSL certificate as described in this article for example.
Yes, you should import an SSL certificate to WCS, or configure Nginx as reverse proxy for Websocket and set up SSL for Nginx.

I am very much interested in the Cloudflare service and would like to learn more about it. Of course, I haven't fully figured out Cloudflare yet, but as I understand, you can transfer the DNS and the entire server to it, so that the connection speed with the server is safer and faster. However, I did not quite understand what WCS is and where do I get an SSL certificate, can you please explain it in more detail? Sorry to waste your time, I'm just very much interested in finding a good service for my site. The previous service that I used was not very good, because I constantly had to change the DNS, which constantly caused errors to appear. Thanks to such services as softwaretesttips.com it was not so difficult to solve the errors.

You can get SSL certificate from every CA center (Lets'Encrypt etc), or from your service provider if available.
