Create users from custom PHP script?

Baikal version: 0.94

Hi, this works great.
But I would like my app to create a user in Baikal at the same time as I generate a mail account on mail server.
How can I do that correct? I can use the same info as on the mail account.
The password is my biggest concern.

Best regards

Maybe this will help: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73008394/sabre-io-baikal-rest-api or perhaps something here: http://tinyurl.com/2p8wha5u .

Thank you, but that is far from my knowledge.
Easiest way would be for me to just use a PHP script to post in the DB.
But I really don't know how the password is encrypted.

Don't mess with the database manually. You will likely break things.

Can you tell me how you create the passwords in the DB?
What type of encrypter etc?
If I can find a way to do the same?

The DB is either SQLlite or MySQL, depending on what you are using. You can open them in phpMyAdmin for MySQL or one of the similar ones for SQLlite and see how the password is encrypted. My guess is MD5 or an SSH key?

After a while I found the formula for creating the password.
All encrypted with MD5 value:value:value

I've build a function that creates the the mailaccounts in postfix and the users with CardDAV and CalDAV.
Just love this Baikal!
