Plesk Import (SSH)

The Plesk import connects directly to the source server via SSH and exports all data. No API key required — root access is sufficient.

Requirements

  • SSH access to the Plesk server (root or sudo)
  • Network connectivity between servers

Starting the Import

  1. Navigate to Import
  2. Click New Import
  3. Select Plesk as the source type
  4. Fill in the connection details:

Host Yes IP address or hostname of the Plesk server
SSH Port Yes SSH port (default: 22)
SSH User Yes SSH username (e.g. root)
SSH Password Yes SSH password or key
Default Package Yes Hosting package for imported customers
Target Server Yes Server for the new accounts
Notifications No Notify customers about migration via email
  1. Click Connect and Scan

Scan Results

After the scan, a summary is displayed:

  • Number of found customers and resellers
  • Number of sites, mailboxes, databases
  • Detected WordPress installations
  • Detected domain aliases
  • List of all objects to migrate

Running the Migration

  1. Review the found data
  2. Optionally deselect individual customers or objects
