Is this a solar flare?

[Solarflaretracker200]

Hello everyone. I am asking this question because I am trying to tell if this is a solar flare or a CME from some random AR. I don't know what it is because I am still new to this (only been watching the sun for about a month now). So yeah I just wonder if this is a solar flare or something.

It's a CME, but not from a solar flare or AR!  It's from a filament eruption, where a large piece of the sun's atmosphere suddenly blasted off into space.  
SWL CME article mentions how they can come from filaments too, not just solar flares: https://www.spaceweatherlive.com/en/help/what-is-a-coronal-mass-ejection-cme.html
There's a good article about it on https://spaceweather.com right now.  First guesses say a glancing blow is possible on Nov. 28th.

The filament lifting off reveals a glowing canyon in the sun behind it:
