Autenticazione

Invia una chiave API come token di tipo bearer. La chiave deve disporre dell'autorizzazione hosting.import.manage; una chiave sprovvista di tale autorizzazione viene rifiutata con 403 anziché 404.

Questo endpoint non richiede alcun ID organizzazione. La tua chiave identifica già l'organizzazione a cui appartiene e la risposta è limitata ad essa.

Dettagli

Takes a hostname and **no credential**, and answers which control panel the host is running, on which port, and what we would expect to be able to take off it. It exists because the step before it used to be a dropdown asking a prospect to choose "cPanel / WHM" or "DirectAdmin" and to know their own control-panel port — which the customer who is leaving a host they are unhappy with frequently cannot answer, and a form that cannot be filled in is a migration that is postponed for ever. It runs unauthenticated TCP connects and reads public sign-in pages. Five protocol fingerprints decide first (`cpsrvd` in a `Server:` header, `PLESKSESSID`, and so on — facts about software, not a list of hosting brands that would rot); a language model is asked to read the page **only** when that table is not confident, and its answer is weighted evidence that cannot outrank a protocol banner. `agent_used` says whether it was asked. `outcome` is three-valued and never a boolean: `identified`, `unidentified` (something answered and we cannot place it — a candidate for the managed migration) and `unreachable` (nothing answered at all — usually a typo or a firewall). Those have opposite remedies, so folding them would hand both populations the same wrong advice. `routes` lists every way in that was tried and whether it answered, with `checked` distinguishing "closed" from "we never got to try". Read it when a panel is firewalled: a host with 2083 closed and 22 open can still have its files, databases and mail moved. **Nothing we do installs anything on the source** — no migration plugin, no backup plugin, no agent — so a host that forbids those blocks none of it. ⛔ `POST` although it creates nothing and carries no secret: it knocks on a third party's administrative ports, which is an act rather than a lookup, and must not be repeated by a prefetch or a back button. A bad hostname or a dead host is an `outcome`, not an error. Requires `hosting.import.manage`.

agent_usedbooleanWhether a language model was asked to read the sign-in page. It is asked only when the deterministic table produced no confident panel.
