| − | ==Internal API== | + | This page has moved to [https://developers.whmcs.com/api/ https://developers.whmcs.com/api/] |

| − | The internal API can be used from any file within WHMCS - be it a template, action hook, addon module, anything. It allows you to call any of the API functions via a local function call to avoid needing to use CURL. For more information on this, please refer to the [[API:Internal_API|Internal API Page]]

| − | ==External API==
| |
| − | | |
| − | The External API supports 3 response types: Name/Value Pairs (NVP), XML & JSON (V4.5 or later)
| |
| − | | |
| − | Most calls support all response types, but certain data retrieval calls will only work under either XML or JSON due to the multi-level depth nature of their responses.

| − | ===API User Setup=== | |
| − | | |
| − | When creating an admin user for API use, only the API permission is required to be able to access & use all the API functions.
| |
| − | | |
| − | You must also setup the IP(s) you will be connecting from in '''General Settings > Security'''. Failure to do this will result in an "Invalid IP xx.xxx.xxx.xx" response from the API.
