Your cloud storage is full email

just got new iPhone setup. I keep getting the above email. My iPhone storage is 35.2 gb used of 128. I am subscribed to iCloud family plan using 70.2 gb of 200. Do I need to do something to connect my new phone to my iCloud subscription?

Troubleshooting iCloud Storage:

This "35.2 gb" you speak of is in internal storage. iCloud storage is what you are being informed about. So, what you need to do is make space in iCloud. Internal storage cannot be upgraded. It is what it is. So, the maximum internal storage capacity never increases, even if you upgraded your iCloud plan. Learn More here: What's the Difference Between Device Storage and iCloud Storage? Apple Support
