  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Having trouble using the Plesk API to manage databases using client / reseller account.

I am able to connect and manage domains, but cannot list, manage, or create corresponding databases.

The documenetation says I should be able to do this. Is there a permissions problem?

Databases are used to store information in a tables format. You can add users to a database (create their own accounts) to grant them access to this information.
