Plesk DNS

Plesk DNS uses XML API packets to list sites, add a TXT challenge on the domain's zone, retrieve zone records, and remove the TXT by the stored id or exact owner/value pair created by sslcertificates.io.

Verification: test_verified. Connection: unknown. Credentials: none. Live E2E: no.

Plesk host and API key for a disposable subscription are not configured.

What sslcertificates.io can do

Plesk DNS uses XML API packets to list sites, add a TXT challenge on the domain's zone, retrieve zone records, and remove the TXT by the stored id or exact owner/value pair created by sslcertificates.io. Capabilities: discover_sites, create_txt, read_txt, delete_owned. Authentication uses api_key.

Required permissions

A Plesk user limited to the subscription that owns the domain. API secret from Tools & Settings → API.

Setup

Open Dashboard → Integrations → Plesk DNS. Enter the credentials described on this page. Values are encrypted at rest and never shown again. Run Test connection. Discovery runs only after authentication succeeds. Select a discovered resource. Do not paste opaque IDs unless the provider cannot enumerate them. Perform the certificate or notification action, then confirm the external system matches. Disconnect removes stored credentials and owned test resources created by sslcertificates.io.

Known limitations

DNS is subscription-scoped. The connector will not edit DNS for domains outside the authenticated subscription.
