Guide to Transfer and Restore API Functions - Queue the Transfer Item

Introduction

When you queue the transfer item, you add a package or account (transfer item) to the transfer list.

Note:

In this example, the following statements are true:

remote.example.com and local.example.com represent the remote server and the local server.
You logged in to the local server with the cpsess########## security token.
The example account owns example.com , and you want to transfer it from the remote server to the local server.
The example.com domain contains 123,456,789 bytes.
You want to transfer the package1 package from the remote server to the local server.
luggage12345 represents the root password for the remote server.

Queue the transfer item

The function's structure depends on the transfer module into which that handles the transfer item. Use the WHM API 1 enqueue_transfer_item function to add a transfer item to the transfer session.

Select the method by which you wish to call the function:

JSON API (root)

https://hostname.example.com:2087/cpsess##########/json-api/enqueue_transfer_item?api.version=1&transfer_session_id=remoteexamplecopya20140211211719FxjU&module=AccountRemoteRoot&user=user&size=1&localuser=username&detected_remote_user=user&domain=example.com&replaceip=all&reseller=0&force=0&ip=0&skiphomedir=0&shared_mysql_server=0&skipres=1&skipacctdb=0&skipaccount=0&xferpoint=1&overwrite_with_delete=1

PHP (root)

include_once '../xmlapi.php';

$ip = getenv('REMOTE_HOST');
$root_user = getenv('REMOTE_USER');
$root_pass = getenv('REMOTE_PASSWORD');

$xmlapi = new xmlapi($ip , $root_user , $root_pass);
$xmlapi->set_output('json');

$settings = array(
 'api.version'=>1,
 'transfer_session_id' => 'remoteexamplecomnoroo20140501194105g7qG',

$_result = $xmlapi->xmlapi_query('enqueue_transfer_item' , $settings);

JSON API (user)

PHP (user)

include_once '../xmlapi.php';

$ip = getenv('REMOTE_HOST');
$root_user = getenv('REMOTE_USER');
$root_pass = getenv('REMOTE_PASSWORD');

$xmlapi = new xmlapi($ip , $root_user , $root_pass);
$xmlapi->set_output('json');

$settings = array(
 'api.version'=>1,
 'transfer_session_id' => 'remoteexamplecomnoroo20140501194105g7qG',
 'module'=>'AccountRemoteUser',
 'user' => 'transferme',

$_result = $xmlapi->xmlapi_query('enqueue_transfer_item' , $settings);

print $_result;

This function only returns the following metadata:

{
  "metadata": {
    "version": 1,
    "reason": "OK",
    "result": "1",
    "command": "enqueue_transfer_item"
  }
}

For root transfers only, add the transfer of the package1 package to the queue with the WHM API 1 enqueue_transfer_item function.
