You don't understand the request. This is not about requests being made to Plesk. Plesk needs to communicate with the outside world, e.g. to receive updates. At my institution, we secure servers by requiring their outgoing HTTP and HTTPS traffic to go through an application level HTTP(S) proxy...

We sometimes create subscriptions that do nothing but host an HTTP redirection. I create these by creating a regular web hosting subscription (including a Linux user and files on the file system), then changing the hosting type to 'forwarding' (which removes the files and the Linux user). Is...

I need to do the same thing. Does the regular documentation address outward connectivity requirements anywhere? I've noticed that ka.plesk.com and ext.plesk.com must be reachable; are there any more hosts and ports Plesk needs to be able to reach for normal operation and upgrades? I understand...

This message is also issued when the hosting type for the domain is set to No web hosting. Set it to Website to allow validation to pass.

Dear Code-Specialist, I am in the same boat as you: we only have Reseller permissions, and sometimes I want to log in as a user to inspect things or execute a script for one or more users. My solution (which took me some time to build): I asked our provider to open up Plesk XML API access to...

Well ... I checked again, and my reply above is just silly. Changing the subscription's domain name in its hosting settings is the actual answer to the question. While additional domains can be defined for a subscription, one domain is associated with it from the start, and its name is the...

Thank you, Kaspar, for the swift reply and the pointer. I couldn't find an announcement like that. Unfortunately, the support article isn't quite correct: It says ftp-user is no longer supported in Onyx (API version 1.6.8.0), but it is still supported in 1.6.9.1, and I rely on it, too. It says...

I am planning to migrate around 150 old-style websites (on a single domain) to a Plesk Obsidian installation, and web users would be a perfect fit. We are a reseller, not administrator, without root rights on the Linux host; we do have access to the XML API. I've been using it for reporting...

This doesn't actually answer the question. The question is how to rename a subscription. The reason I'm here is because I have exactly that question. There is nothing wrong with answering a question with "sorry, can't be done". The answer provided, namely, that t is possible to rename the...

I need this, too. We are resellers with access to the XML RPC API, without access to the command line interface or the REST API. Can it be done with the XML RPC API? How?

I created an account here just to say: I'm at the exact point where you were when you wrote that. Have you made any progress since then? Have you found any documentation for the library or any code examples besides the unit tests bundled with it?
