• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

Question Virtual Host Template Applied to REST API Domains?

jPG

New Pleskian
Hello,

I recently configured a virtual host template successfully applied to any new domain created manually in Plesk. When I use the Plesk REST API to create domains, the virtual host template is not applied. Is it possible to apply a virtual host template on API created domains?

Here's my current PHP API call function:

function createDomain($domain, $secretKey, $parentDomainGuid, $ownerClientGuid, $ipv4, $ipv6, $domainId){
$url = "https://" . $domain . ":8443/api/v2/domains";
$folder = $this->account->install_folder;
$request = array (
'name' => $folder . ' . ' . $domain,
'hosting_type' => 'virtual',
'hosting_settings' =>
array (
"www_root" => 'httpdocs/' . $folder,
'certificate_name'=> 'Lets Encrypt ' . $domain
),
'parent_domain' =>
array (
'id' => $domainId,
'name' => $domain,
'guid' => $parentDomainGuid,
),
'owner_client' =>
array (
'id' => 1,
'login' => 'admin',
'guid' => $ownerClientGuid,
'external_id' => '',
),
'ipv4' =>
array (
0 => $ipv4,
),
'ipv6' =>
array (
0 => $ipv6,
),
'plan' =>
array (
'name' => 'Unlimited',
),
);
}

Thanks in advance!

Also, could you explain your issue in more detail? What's different on your domain when you create it trough the REST API compared to when you manually create a domain?
 
Yeah, sorry. I am running Plesk Obsidian 18.0.42 and trying to add a vhost_nginx.conf file to the virtual template "conf" folder. It works like a charm for domains I create manually but not for the ones created by the API. Just wondering if I am missing something...
 
I would suggest contacting Plesk support and explaining your issue in detail to them so they can investigate the issue. Perhaps it's an undocumented limitation on the REST API or even a bug. If it's not, I am sure they can offer a possible solution.
