What are the variables in .../xml-api/showbw? For example like the account summary xml file.

<accountsummary>
<acct>
<disklimit>1000M</disklimit>
</acct>

It’s just I don't have access to cPanel and I am trying to write a script that parses the xml.

Thanks very much.

The contents of showbw look like the following:

<acct>
  <deleted>0</deleted>
  <limit>BANDWIDTH-LIMIT-IN-BYTES</limit>
  <maindomain>MAIN-DOMAIN</maindomain>
  <owner>OWNER-OF-ACCOUNT</owner>
  <reseller>0 OR 1</reseller>
  <totalbytes>NUMBER-OF-BYTES-TRANSFERRED</totalbytes>
  <user>USERNAME</user>
</acct>

Can the xml be called by xml-api/showbw?user=xxxxx?

To display the bandwidth consumption for an individual user, you would use:

xml-api/showbw?search=USERNAME&searchtype=user

In this example, USERNAME is the user whose bandwidth information I desire.

This there a date variable in showbw? For some reason 2009 is being displayed?

You mean 2009 is being displayed in the year tag, just like 3 is currently displayed in the month tag, indicating which month this bandwidth data is for?

Yes, you can set month=MONTH_NUMBER and year=YEAR as GET parameters.
- YEAR is a 4-digit year (e.g. 2008)
- MONTH_NUMBER is a number representing a month (1 representing January .. 12 representing December).

WHM does not generate daily bandwidth reports. Therefore, since WHM doesn't have this function - there is no API to access such information.

At this time, cPanel user quota modification is not available in our XML API except by means of changing the package associated with that account.
