• 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.

New Pleskian
I have a problem using Plesk cli on Debian (OS: ‪Debian 10.8‬ Product: Plesk Obsidian 18.0.33 Update #1)
Server Administration Panel of Plesk works fine, no problem, but if I try to execute command on SSH - I get an error:

( execute commands as root)

root@hungry-carv:~# plesk
bash: plesk: command not found

root@hungry-carv:/usr/local/psa/bin# plesk
bash: plesk: command not found

root@hungry-carv:/opt/psa/bin# plesk
bash: plesk: command not found


I used the recommendations from this article, but this doesn't work in my case...
I understand that the problem is probably in the wrong path, but I could not find a solution in the documentation for Plesk....

Looks like a corrupted Plesk installation: not all the required Plesk packages are installed on the server.
  1. Download Plesk installer script:
    # wget https://autoinstall.plesk.com/plesk-installer
  2. Add executable permission to the downloaded script:
    # chmod +x ./plesk-installer
  3. Run the script and proceeded further on the menu to install the missing packages:
    # sh ./plesk-installer
 
I found a solution of this problem.
I did search for executable files and find correct path to Plesk CLI in my server - /usr/sbin/
Now CLI works fine:

root@hungry-carv:/# /usr/sbin/plesk
Usage: plesk [command]

Commands:
bin - Run the specified Plesk command-line utility (e.g., domain, client)
checkupgrade - Download the preupgrade checker for the latest, or specific Plesk version
conf - Open the specified Plesk configuration file in the editor
..............

OR

root@hungry-carv:/usr/sbin# ./plesk version
Product version: Plesk Obsidian 18.0.33.1
OS version: Debian 10.8 x86_64
Build date: 2021/02/25 14:00
............

I will be glad if this information helps someone.
