cPanel API 2 Functions - Bandwidth::addhttpbandwidth

Description

This function adds bandwidth to an account.

Warning:

We removed this function in cPanel & WHM version 11.52. We strongly recommend that you use the following UAPI function instead of this function:

  • Bandwidth::query — This function queries an account's bandwidth data and returns a report.

Examples 


 WHM API (JSON)

https://hostname.example.com:2087/cpsess###########/json-api/cpanel?cpanel_jsonapi_user=user&cpanel_jsonapi_apiversion=2&cpanel_jsonapi_module=Bandwidth&cpanel_jsonapi_func=addhttpbandwidth&bytes=672&domain=colin.com

 LiveAPI PHP Class

$cpanel new CPANEL(); // Connect to cPanel - only do this once.
  
// Add HTTP bandwidth for example.com.
$add_bandwidth $cpanel->api2(
    'bandwidth''addhttpbandwidth',
        array(
        'bytes'             => '672',
        'domain'            => 'example.com',
    )
  );

 LiveAPI Perl Module

my $cpliveapi = Cpanel::LiveAPI->new(); # Connect to cPanel - only do this once.
  
# Add HTTP bandwidth for example.com.
my $add_bandwidth $cpliveapi->api2(
    'Bandwidth''addhttpbandwidth',
        {
        'bytes'             => '672',
        'domain'            => 'example.com',
        }  
);

 cPanel Tag System (deprecated)

Warning:

In cPanel & WHM version 11.30 and later, cPanel tags are deprecated. We strongly recommend that you only use the LiveAPI system to call the cPanel APIs.

cPanel API 2 calls that use cPanel tags vary widely in code syntax and in their output. For more information, read our Deprecated cPanel Tag Usage documentation. Examples are only present in order to help developers move from the old cPanel tag system to our LiveAPI.


 Command Line

Important:

Because we removed this function before we introduced this functionality, you cannot call this function via the command line. 


 Output (JSON)

  "cpanelresult": {
    "apiversion": 2,

Use cPanel's API Shell interface (Home >> Advanced >> API Shell) to directly test cPanel API calls.
