"Cruz stated that he was the gunman who entered the school campus armed with a AR-15 and began shooting students that he saw in the hallways and on the school grounds," according to the court document.
He said he was carrying extra ammunition in a black duffel bag and backpack, it said.
Mr Cruz then discarded his weapon in an attempt to blend in and escape, the documents showed.
He was reportedly able to flee the scene undetected before entering a Walmart and then a McDonalds, and was eventually spotted by police and arrested one hour after the attack.
What do we know about the suspect?
Mr Cruz had been expelled from the school he has confessed to attacking and some students said they had joked "he's the one to shoot up the school".
One former schoolmate, Chad Reuters, told Reuters Mr Cruz was an "outcast" who was "crazy about guns".
His interest in weapons was apparent on his social media profiles, which Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel said were "very, very disturbing".
Two separate Instagram accounts, now deleted, purport to show Mr Cruz posing with guns and knives.
What were the warnings?
After seeing a comment on a YouTube post last year by Mr Cruz, user Ben Bennight contacted the FBI and spoke to representatives for about 20 minutes.
Mr Bennight said the FBI contacted him again following the school shooting in Parkland.
Chris Hixon, who was the athletic director at the school, was also confirmed dead by local media. In 2007 Mr Hixon, 49, served as a US Naval Reservist in Iraq.
Teacher Scott Beigel died while trying to lock the door, a student told Good Morning America.
Among the student victims so far identified are:
Alaina Petty, 14
Alex Schachter, 14
Martin Duque, 14
Gina Montalto, 14
Jaime Guttenberg, 17
Cara Loughran
Luke Hoyer, 15
Alyssa Alhadeff, 15
Carmen Schentrup, 16
Joaquin Oliver, 17
Nicholas Dworet, 18
Meadow Pollack, 18
On Thursday, thousands of people attended a candlelit vigil to honour the victims. There were chants of "no more guns" as speakers demanded tougher gun laws.
