In fairness, you are technically doing the types of things Cloudflare would correctly flag by trying to use a direct browser URL rather than handling this with a server. From Cloudflare's point of view, the only way you can bypass that is to actually switch certain page rules to have security set to "Essentially Off", and I don't really see Marketo being keen on setting that up.

But we are using marketo from long back, never faced this kind of issue. From 26 June 2019 this issue started.
May i know is there any software or functionality update from marketo?

Marketo has introduced additional levels of security to further protect it's infrastructure from web based attacks.  I suggest you use our supported Forms 2.0 API https://developers.marketo.com/javascript-api/forms/

Hi Steven,

Do you have an idea how to modify that security?
I checked  developers.marketo.com/javascript-api/forms this url, but unable to find topics related to security.

We are having the same problem. Although, we are using the Forms 2.0 API, I believe our issue is because are network is NAT'ed to a signal public IP and thus Cloudflare thinks we are a bot or are denial of service attack since all our network traffic for our marketing users, developers, application and web monitoring comes from the same public IP. Marketo support has refused to white list the IP and thus all internal users get the CAPTCHA screen. We have yet to come up with an effective solution. A warning from Marketo would have been helpful before they implemented this, so we could prepare rather than scrambling to find a fix for this.

Yours is a much worse problem because it indicates how CloudFlare's mistakes (which I allude to above) have a direct impact on regular people attempting to engage with your forms.
