Zapier couldn't connect with Wordpress - “authentication failed: Error parsing response” error

I received the following error trying to connect Zapier to Wordpress:

authentication failed: Error parsing response. We got: "<!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="es"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset="

 

I use Cloudflare as CDN to my Wordpress site, I guess the problem comes from there, I’d like to know if somebody faced this kind of problem or recognize the message in order to gather more information.

 

Thanks in advance,

RR

The problem is solved, it wasn’t CloudFlare, It was my error, I was trying to log in with an incorrect URL including “wp-login.php” and “/wp-admin/”
