​

Create a provision configuration

​

Linking Plesk to Upmind

In Upmind, you should add Plesk as a provision configuration. You can either do this

• On the sidebar, go to Settings > Provision Configurations > Add New Configuration.

You should fill it out as follows:

1. Enter a server name. You may just want to use the Plesk control server name or give it a more familiar name.
2. Under the Provision Category of Web Hosting, choose Plesk as the hosting panel type.

3. Enter your Hostname, Admin Username, Admin Password, and Secret Key**.**
4. Click Create.

​

Creating packages

Plesk calls packages Service Plans. You need to add a Service Plan in Plesk and add this as your service identifier in Upmind.

​

Configure Upmind products

In your Upmind admin area, under Host control > Web hosting, click on the Hosting packages tab and click the Add new button to start configuring a new hosting package. Now go to the product’s Provisioning page and set the Provision provider to Plesk, and set the Package Identifier provision field to match your Plesk package name or ID. Package identifier must match the package name. At this point, your Plesk product provisioning is all set up and ready to go.

Auto-Login

Plesk supports auto-login. When you or your client clicks Login to Control Panel when requesting an SSO link that is tied to the IP you request it with. You are then automatically redirected and logged into Plesk.
