The Kinsta CDN is available only for live sites and environments with the Premium Staging Environment add-on. The Change CDN Bulk Action does not affect a free, basic staging environment.

Currently, you can’t enable or disable the CDN via the API, but you can use it to clear the CDN cache, just as you can with Bulk Actions in MyKinsta.
