• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

Question Cloudflare DNS extension & /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/dnsmng --update

Hi,

I have a domain exported to Cloudflare via the Cloudflare DNS extension.
Would anyone know if the sync to Cloudflare for this domain is triggered by the command "/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/dnsmng --update"?

Thanks.
 
I am not sure if I understand your objective. But to my knowledge exporting an DNS zone to Cloudflare can only be performed manually.

Edit: sorry I misread you post. I mixed-up syncing from and to CF in my head.

The export is done manually. But then if I update the DNS, I am willing to trigger the Sync function, to push latest changes to CloudFlare. Hence I am wondering if the command dnsmng would do so.
 
If I am not mistaken, the extension automatically syncs a zone (if the slider is enabled) when Plesk informs the extension about the zone change.
If no zone changes are made or if the slider is disabled, the extension will not export changes to Cloudflare; however, if necessary, sync can be done manually through the icon on the right side.

[...] if I update the DNS, I am willing to trigger the Sync function [...]
Could you provide details on what you usually do before executing `dnsmng --update`?
