Sample curl request to WHMCS API

[Pradeep Sanjeewa]

Hi,

I need to call WHMCS API "GetClients" from my cpanel server. To test my API request, I'm trying to come up with a curl request to try in postman. 
Can someone provide me with a sample curl request to WHMCS API which I can import and try in postman?  
 

Thanks.

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'https://www.example.com/includes/api.php');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,
    http_build_query(
        array(
            'action' => 'GetClients',
            // See https://developers.whmcs.com/api/authentication
            'username' => 'IDENTIFIER_OR_ADMIN_USERNAME',
            'password' => 'SECRET_OR_HASHED_PASSWORD',
            'search' => 'example.com',
            'responsetype' => 'json',
        )
    )
);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
$response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

Isn't there any sample requests of the format "curl --request POST https://yourwebsite.com/"  which I can directly hit in terminal?

Pradeep Sanjeewa - Did you managed to connect to WHMCS API with postman?

For me this worked

curl --location --request POST 'https://WHMCS-SITE-ADDRESS/includes/api.php?username=Q0n..........&password=RS9ar..........&action=GetClients'
