Can't (dry-run) renew domain with dns-cloudflare (dns-01) challenge, unauthorized

Please fill out the fields below so we can help you better. Note: you must provide your domain name to get help. Domain names for issued certificates are all made public in Certificate Transparency logs (e.g. https://crt.sh/?q=example.com), so withholding your domain name here does not increase secrecy, but only makes it harder for us to provide help.

My domain is:
ztjuh.tk

I ran this command:
sudo certbot renew --dry-run --agree-tos

It produced this output:

My web server is (include version): apache 2.4.38

The operating system my web server runs on is (include version): Arch Linux

My hosting provider, if applicable, is: -

I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I don’t know): Yes

I’m using a control panel to manage my site (no, or provide the name and version of the control panel): No

The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version or certbot-auto --version if you’re using Certbot): certbot 0.31.0

Nevermind I found the problem, cloudflare changed my Account-ID.

Changed the account = xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx in /etc/letsencrypt/renewal/domain.tld.conf and it renewed.
