cPanel API 2 Functions - SSL::fetchcabundle

Warning:

The cPanel API 2 system is deprecated. We strongly recommend that you use UAPI instead of cPanel API 2.

Description

This function retrieves a certificate's Certificate Authority (CA) bundle.

Warning:

We strongly recommend that you use the following UAPI function instead of this function:

SSL::get_cabundle — This function retrieves a certificate's CA bundle and hostname.

Note:

Due to the limited field length of HTTP GET method calls, you must use the HTTP POST method. For this reason, you cannot use the WHM API method to call this function.

Important:

When you disable the Calendars and Contacts, Receive Mail, Web Disk, Webmail, and Web Server roles, the system disables this function.

Examples

LiveAPI PHP Class

$cpanel = new CPANEL(); // Connect to cPanel - only do this once.

// Retrieve the account's CA bundles.
$install_ssl = $cpanel->api2(
    'SSL', 'fetchcabundle',

Warnings:

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