Frequently Asked Questions

Why does the domain field show numbers/letters?

Since the Cloud Platform uses the same domain for every customer, we use the customer id to identify the customer instead. It is required to uniquely identify the customer to sync usage information.

Integrate Cloud Video with WHMCS

1. Configure Cloud Plans

The WHMCS module connects directly to the MediaCP Cloud and uses the plans configured in your application. You must first create some plans in your application to use the MediaCP Cloud module.

Plans setup in the MediaCP Cloud Platform are automatically linked to your WHMCS module.

How to setup a Plan in your Cloud Platform

If you wish to use Metric billing, then you can simply set unlimited values in the MediaCP Cloud Plan.

  2. Click on your Profile name in the top right corner and select “My Profile”
  3. Scroll down the page until you see Create API Token
  4. Enter any name such as WHMCS then press Create
  5. Copy the provided token somewhere safe for now, we’ll use this within WHMCS.

3. Install WHMCS Module

Usage / Metric Billing

Usage billing allows you to charge your customers based on the resources they consume.

Read more about WHMCS Usage Billing

Metric billing still requires you to select a plan for your WHMCS Product, you could set Unlimited options in the MediaCP Cloud plan or configure some hard limitations to avoid users going beyond a certain amount.

Metrics that are enabled will be displayed in the Client Area.
