• Debian 11 is approaching its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.80 will be the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

Creating DNS records via API RPC

TasGray

New Pleskian
Hi Everyone,

I'm looking for a way to create DNS records on a Plesk Panel account at the 'customer' level. Does anyone know if this is possible?

Thanks in advance,

Tas
 
In otherwards creating DNS records without necessarily having a subscription / domain name in plesk, right?
 
Hi Abdi,

No, I want to create DNS records for accounts on plesk which are the standard user accounts with a domain / subscription.

To explain in more detail, what I'm trying to do is like this.

I've signed up for a plesk hosting account with my domain testingpleskapi.net.au. The server is running plesk 11.0. I have a basic web hosting account with no reseller or plesk administrator access. Ideally, I'd like to write some code which calls the API RPC method to add a DNS record. Is this scenario possible, or is it as the documentation states, a requirement to have Plesk Administrator access?

Many thanks.
 
You need Plesk admin account for using API RPC requests for Adding DNS Record.

Hi Igor,

Thanks for confirming. Do you know if this is ever likely to change? We are building a suite of tools for Office 365 which simplify the process of DNS record creation. It currently works with cPanel and we wanted to add Plesk to the list. Obviously not many people have Plesk administrator access.

You can see the tool here - https://tools.axiomit.com.au/. It's being used quite heavily already and we'd love Plesk to work with it.

Many thanks,

Tas
