Cannot get client passwords via API anymore ?

[Mshaker]

Previously we use to sync plesk client passwords with our billing system using the plesk API. After upgrading to plesk 11.0.9 Update #41 the get client details method returns everything but the password. Also note that "Enhanced security mode" is NOT enabled for the server. Does anyone know how we can get client passwords from the API anymore ?

Polite bump for anyone at Parallels ?

Polite bump again now that everyone is back from vacation.

Yes, "password" field will be returned empty if not encrypted.
I don't think there is a way to change it.

What was the purpose of keeping Plesk passwords in your billing system? Transparent login? API?

Having the login details synced allows us to have only one login for our client area. After the user logs in to the client area they can "one click" to login to any of our plesk servers . Also because its linked directly in the client area the user doesn't have to know which plesk server they are on as we can redirect them and log them in automatically.

This is a real bummer as now we have no way to have everything synced.

Sergey, we need transparent login via our client area. Have Plesk some api call to get token (one time login link) for authentication?
