Question REST Api How to create Webspace

[mhalterbeck]

Hi everyone,

how do I create a Webhosting via REST Api?

I already created a User via API but my Problem is that I cant create a Webspace.

I used the following code:

<packet>
<webspace>
<add>
<gen_setup>
<name>domain_to_add</name>
<owner-id>2</owner-id>
<htype>vrt_hst</htype>
<ip_address>IP_of_plesk</ip_address>
<status>0</status>
</gen_setup>
<hosting>
<vrt_hst>
<property>
<name>ftp_login</name>
<value>ftp_login</value>
</property>
<property>
<name>ftp_password</name>
<value>ftp_password</value>
</property>
<property>
<name>fp</name>
<value>false</value>
</property>
<property>
<name>fp_ssl</name>
<value>false</value>
</property>
<property>
<name>fp_auth</name>
<value></value>
</property>
<property>
<name>fp_admin_login</name>
<value></value>
</property>
<property>

There is the REST API and the XML RCP API. The code you've posted is for the later. It will not work if you send it to the REST API. However I assume you are actually using the XML RCP API and mixed up the API names. If the XML code you are using isn't working then you'll likely get an error returned from the API. What does it say?

If you're looking for an example for the actual REST API to a look the code bellow.
