Retrieving Protected Directory Properties

Use the get operation to retrieve properties of a specific protected directory.

Request Packet Structure

A request XML packet changing protected directory properties includes the get operation node:

<packet version="1.5.2.0">
<protected-dir>
<get>
...  
</get>
</protected-dir>
</packet>

The get node is presented by type ProtectedDirGetInput (protected_dir.xsd), and its graphical representation is as follows:

• The filter node is required. It specifies the filtering rule. For details, refer to the Available Filters section. Data type: ProtectedDirFilter (protected_dir.xsd).

Response Packet Structure

The get node of the output XML packet is presented by type ProtectedDirGetOutput (protected_dir.xsd) and structured as follows:

• The result node is required. It wraps the response retrieved from the server. Data type: resultFilterType (common.xsd).
• The status node is required. It specifies the execution status of the operation. Data type: string. Allowed values: ok | error.
• The errcode node is optional. Is returns the error code if the operation fails. Data type: integer.
• The errtext node is optional. It returns the error message if the operation fails. Data type: string.
• The filter-id node is required if the request packet is valid. It returns the filtering rule parameter. For details, refer to the Available Filters section. Data type: anySimple.
• The id node is required if the operation succeeds. It returns the ID of the protected directory which properties were retrieved. Data type: integer.
• The data node is required if the operation succeeds. It specifies the protected directory properties. The node is presented by type: complex. Its graphical representation is as follows:

  

• The name node is optional. It specifies the protected directory name. Data type: string.
• The header node is optional. It specifies the protected directory header. It is the message that is displayed to a user when he tries to access the protected directory. Data type: string.
• The location node is optional. It specifies protected directory properties. The node is present in the response packet only for Plesk for Linux/Unix servers. Data type: complex.
• The property node is required if the location node is specified. It specifies the protected directory property. Data type: ProtectedDirLocationProperty (protected_dir.xsd).
• The name node is required if the location node is specified. It specifies the protected directory property name. Data type: string. Names and values of properties that can be changed for a specific site or common for all domains properties can be retrieved using the get-pd-location-descriptor operation.
• The value node is required if the location node is specified. It specifies the protected directory property value. Data type: boolean.

Samples

Retrieving properties of a single protected directory

The packet that retrieves properties of the protected directory with ID 1 looks as follows:

<packet>
<protected-dir>
    <get>
      <filter>
         <id>1</id>
      </filter>
    </get>
  </protected-dir>
</packet>

Response:

<packet>
<protected-dir>
      <get>
        <result>
          <status>ok</status>
          <filter-id>1</filter-id>
          <id>1</id>
          <data>
            <name>directory</name>
            <header>This is a header!</header>
            <location>
              <property>
                  <name>ssl</name>
                  <value>true</value>
              </property>
              <property>
                  <name>non-ssl</name>
                  <value>true</value>
              </property>
              <property>
                  <name>cgi</name>
                  <value>true</value>
              </property>
            </location>
          </data>  
        </result>
      </get>
    </protected-dir>
</packet>

If the protected directory was not found, the response from the server looks as follows:

<packet>
<protected-dir>
  <get>
    <result>
     <status>error</status>
     <errcode>1013</errcode>
     <errtext>Protected URL is not found</errtext>
     <filter-id>1</filter-id>
    </result>
  </get>
</protected-dir>
</packet> 

Retrieving properties of multiple protected directories

The packet that retrieves properties of all protected directories of the site with ID 132 looks as follows:

<packet>
<protected-dir>
    <get>
      <filter>
         <site-id>132</site-id>
      </filter>
    </get>
  </protected-dir>
</packet>

Response:

<packet>
<protected-dir>
      <get>
        <result>
          <status>ok</status>
          <filter-id>132</filter-id>
          <id>34</id>
          <data>
            <name>directory</name>
            <header>This is a header!</header>
            <location>
              <property>
                  <name>ssl</name>
                  <value>true</value>
              </property>
              <property>
                  <name>non-ssl</name>
                  <value>false</value>
              </property>
              <property>
                  <name>cgi</name>
                  <value>true</value>
              </property>
            </location>
          </data>  
        </result>
        <result>
          <status>ok</status>
          <filter-id>132</filter-id>
          <id>37</id>
          <data>
            <name>MySecondDirectory</name>
            <header>This is a the second directory header!</header>
            <location>
              <property>
                  <name>ssl</name>
                  <value>true</value>
              </property>
              <property>
                  <name>non-ssl</name>
                  <value>true</value>
              </property>
              <property>
                  <name>cgi</name>
                  <value>true</value>
              </property>
            </location>
          </data>  
        </result>
      </get>
    </protected-dir>
</packet>
