Domain administrator permissions not set through API

[Matthew James]

Hi,

When creating an account in Plesk using the API, the domain administrator permissions are not granted as they should be:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><packet version="1.4.1.0"><domain>
<add>
<gen_setup>
<name>testing.co.uk</name>
<ip_address>*.*.*.*</ip_address>
<htype>vrt_hst</htype>
<status>0</status>
</gen_setup>
<hosting>
<vrt_hst>
<ftp_login>testing.co.uk</ftp_login>
<ftp_password>********</ftp_password>
<ip_address>*.*.*.*</ip_address>
</vrt_hst>
</hosting>
<user>
<enabled>true</enabled>
<password>********</password>
<permissions>
<manage_phosting>true</manage_phosting>
<manage_ftp_password>true</manage_ftp_password>
<manage_not_chroot_shell>true</manage_not_chroot_shell>
<manage_sh_access>true</manage_sh_access>
<manage_quota>true</manage_quota>
<manage_subdomains>true</manage_subdomains>
<manage_domain_aliases>true</manage_domain_aliases>
<manage_log>true</manage_log>
<manage_anonftp>true</manage_anonftp>
<manage_crontab>true</manage_crontab>
<manage_dns>true</manage_dns>
<manage_webapps>true</manage_webapps>
<manage_maillists>true</manage_maillists>
<manage_spamfilter>true</manage_spamfilter>
<manage_drweb>true</manage_drweb>
<allow_local_backups>true</allow_local_backups>
<allow_ftp_backups>true</allow_ftp_backups>
<site_builder>true</site_builder>
<manage_dashboard>true</manage_dashboard>
</permissions>
</user>
<template-name>Linux Bronze</template-name>
</add>
</domain></packet>

Permissions have been set in the above XML packet and the response is all ok:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<packet version="1.4.1.0"><domain><add><result><status>ok</status><id>113</id></result></add></domain></packet>

However only Home page management and web statistics management permissions are given to the domain administrator when the account is created in Plesk.

I think this is a bug?

Thanks

I have submitted request to developers regarding this issue. Let's wait their answer. I will update thread with results.

It seems like the example in your documentation is wrong, if you use <perms></perms> instead of <permissions></permissions> then it works ok.

 

[IgorG]

Thank you. I have forwarded this information to developers too.

You are right, the examples in documentation contain mistake. The request packets samples which operates with domain administrator's permissions should contain <perms> element instead of <permissions>.
