    echo $e;
    return;

    echo '200';
return;

 

You see my upper code in a `path-to-whmcs/admin/test05.php`, I follow the [API document](https://developers.whmcs.com/api-reference/sendadminemail/ 

But it send email fail, there  even echo `200`, but the `$response` is blank. there only echo `200`.

 

Who can tell me why there is issue in sendAdminEmail?

You are only attempting to catch an Exception, WHMCS does not throw an exception if the API command fails. You need to interpret the response and throw your own Exception if needed in this case. The way your code is structure, it would only hit the catch if cURL throws an exception.
