How can a PHP script interact with the 1&1 Control-Center to create new email addresses?

To interact with the 1&1 Control-Center to create new email addresses, you can use the 1&1 API which allows you to programmatically manage your 1&1 products and services. You will need to authenticate your PHP script with the API using your 1&1 API key and secret. Then, you can use the API endpoints to create new email addresses within your 1&1 account.

// Set up API credentials
$api_key = 'YOUR_API_KEY';
$api_secret = 'YOUR_API_SECRET';

// Set up API endpoint for creating email addresses
$endpoint = 'https://api.ionos.com/email/v1/accounts/YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID/emailAddresses';

// Set up request headers
$headers = array(
    'Content-Type: application/json',
    'X-Tenant-ID: YOUR_TENANT_ID',
    'Authorization: Basic ' . base64_encode($api_key . ':' . $api_secret)
);

// Set up request body with email address details
$data = array(
    'email' => 'newemail@example.com',
    'password' => 'password123'
);

// Make POST request to create new email address
$ch = curl_init($endpoint);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, 'POST');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, json_encode($data));
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

// Handle response from API
if ($response) {
    $result = json_decode($response, true);
    echo 'New email address created successfully: ' . $result['email'] . PHP_EOL;
} else {
    echo 'Error creating new email address.' . PHP_EOL;
}
