Create new emails from an external source (API)

[rubo77]

Is it possible to create a new email from external by calling a certain API call or such ?

We need to create emails from within another php-service on the same machine

there it states:

Zitat

EmailDomains.add

You cannot directly add email-domains

 

is it easy to learn how the api calls work? (Example)

Maybe We can develop the missing function. Or is someone working on this already (maybe on https://github.com/Froxlor/Froxlor/ )

I guess we would have to program the public function add():

it's literally in the comment...you just cannot add emaildomains directly, you just need to use the "Domains.add"  api call to create a domain which has email usage enabled

[d00p]

Froxlor itself basically always uses its API internally...so everything you can do within the webui, you can most likely also do with the API externally

OK, so If I already created the domain for the email, lets say "example.com" , to add "jon.dow@example.com" I guess I need EmailAccounts.add

my initial answer, remember that adding an address does not automatically make it an account, to make it an account you'd also have to invoke https://docs.froxlor.org/latest/api-guide/commands/emailaccounts.html for the newly created address
