The add operation is used to register a custom option of service plans (additional service) in Panel database.

Request Packet Structure

A request XML packet registering a new additional service includes the add operation node:

<packet>
<plan-item>
   <add>
   ...
   </add>
</plan-item>
</packet>

The add node does not have a separate data type, it is nested within the complex type (plan_item.xsd). The add node has the following graphics representation:

• The visible node is required. It specifies whether the additional service is available for adding to subscriptions. Data type: boolean.
• The label node is required. It specifies the additional service name. Data type: text.
• The tooltip node is required. It specifies additional service description. Data type: text.
• The url node is optional. It specifies the URL attached to the custom button created for the additional service. Data type: urlType.
• The internal node is optional. It defines if the URL is opened in the right Plesk frame or in the new window. Data type: boolean.
• The noframe node is optional. If the URL leads to a Plesk extension or web app, this option specifies how the extension/app should be displayed on the Plesk page: in a frame or as a part of the Plesk GUI. The latter is recommended as the extension/app is seamlessly integrated into the Plesk GUI. Note that the noframe option is relevant only for the extensions/apps that support this feature. If an extension/app does not support the integration with the Plesk GUI, it will be displayed in a frame regardless of the noframe value. Data type: boolean.
• The url-components node is optional. It specifies what information is included into HTTP request when a customer clicks a custom button for the additional service. Data type: PlanItemUrlComponentsType (plan_item.xsd). To see the structure of this node, proceed to topic url-components.
• The image-file node is optional. It specifies the file name of background image for the custom button. Data type: string.

Response Packet Structure

The add node of the output XML packet is structured as follows:

• The result node is required. It wraps the information about the operation execution and the list of webmail services. Data type: ResultType (common.xsd).
• The status node is required. It specifies the execution status of the operation. Data type: result_status (string). Allowed values: ok | error.
• The errcode node is optional. It returns the error code. Data type: unsignedInt.
• The errtext node is optional. It returns the error message. Data type: string.
• The name node is required. It specifies the additional service name. Data type: string.
