Possible Invalid JSON Returned

[jam230]

I just started recently using UAPI to get JSON responses but they don't seem to make sense to me and it's probably something simple that I'm not aware of.

I have used many JSON APIs but I can figure out why there are missing curly braces and missing quotes in the output. It doesn't match what is supposed to be output according to the docs either: UAPI Functions - Bandwidth::query - Developer Documentation - cPanel Documentation

I can't decode or do anything with it in the PHP scripts I am using.

Here is the full command and output I am using directly from the terminal.

[root@server ~]# uapi --user=user Bandwidth query grouping=domain%7Cyear interval=daily protocols=http%7Cimap%7Csmtp

Hey there! If you add this to the end of the API call you'll see it get formatted nicely with all the typical curly brackets:

--output=jsonpretty

Can you try that and see if that works well for you?

Wow, that worked great! Thanks!
Not sure why this is not in the docs.

It will be! I've submitted a docs case to our API team so they can work on getting that added :D
