Thanks @julien-f
We had a discussion with our developer on Friday and he was recommending we look at ovirt to achieve our goal here, but I am not yet convinced we need to start down that path.
We've run XEN/XCP in our environment since version 5, hence I am keen to continue with it as our core, however customer service is a growing issue for us as our customers are complaining about lack of self-service capability which is fair enough.
Thanks for your help.

Thanks @julien-f
I have played with xo-cli and have an idea on it's workings, however that's not useful for creating scripts to utilise the API.
I want to understand how to form an API instruction to perform a task.
Is there a guide to creating JSON-RPC scripts that work with XO Server?
D.
Thanks @olivierlambert
Is there a definitive guide for the xo-cli commands ?
Where can I find an example of a JSON-RPC call that we can learn from ?
D.
I can't find any detailed documentation on how to access and use the API, i could only find the xo-cli command reference guide.
We want to create XEN functions (start/restart/shutdown) from our web application which is PHP.
Is there a set of docs somewhere ?
Many thanks
D.
Hi @stormi
Yes, I have installed and played with that and tried xo-cli, however it's just not a proper API that we can pass commands from an external application.
Cheers

Hi All,
I would like to hire a developer to help us create an interface for our customers to start/restart/shutdown their VMs running on XCP-ng.
We've had some discussions around approaching this, but I would like to hear from others what is the best way to create an API to talk to XCP-ng from a PHP based web application.
Happy to hear thoughts, input and advice.
Many thanks.
Darren.
Because I want to push users through a web portal interface which can obtain information from XO-Server for presentation back (ie: VM status, parameters, etc) whilst also allowing users to start/restart/shutdown VMs.
We looked at XOA however it was too expensive and the free version has nag text messages which I don't want presented to users.
Thanks @pdonias much appreciated.
My goal was to pass commands to XO-Server from a secure VM that can start/restart VMs via script.
I'm really struggling to integrate XCP-NG remote control functionality and now may need to start looking at something else.
Cheers

Thanks Olivier. Surely someone is using webhooks and can share an example http request into XO-Server to start a VM.
The rest I can work out from there.
Cheers,
D.
Hi All,
I have just started playing with XO-Server webhooks, however I can't tell if my syntax is incorrect and I am not sure of the exact syntax to use when attempting webhooks.
I have read through the documentation but I can't find any working examples of webhooks.
Can someone please point me in the right direction or maybe provide an example of a working webhook to start or restart a VM ?
Many thanks
Darren.
