Question
Is it possible to import or export a Service Plan or Addon?
Answer
For Plesk Onyx 17.8 or newer Hosting Plan Exporter extension can be used. It gives the ability to copy service plans between Plesk servers by exporting and importing them in JSON format.
To install it, follow these steps:
- Login to Plesk.
- Go to Extensions > type Hosting Plan Exporter > click Get It Free.
- Access the extension in Extensions > My Extensions > Hosting Plan Exporter to export or import service plans.

Note: there is no way to import service plans in Plesk 17.5, such a feature is available only starting from Plesk 17.8.
It is possible to export service plans in XML format using service_plan or service_plan_addon utilities:
- For admin service plans:
# plesk bin service_plan --xml-info "Plan 1"
-
For service plans created by reseller, use service_plan utility with -owner option:
# plesk bin service_plan --xml-info "Reseller_plan" -owner <login>
where <login> is username of reseller:As for service plans created by admin for reseller, use reseller_plan utility:
# plesk bin reseller_plan --xml-info "Default Reseller"

Hello @JUSTIN
Changing a service plan owner feature has not been implemented in Plesk yet.
Take part in our product improvement by voting for this feature request at Plesk UserVoice portal. The top-ranked ones are likely to be included in next versions of Plesk.
Hello. If I wanted to copy an admin service plan to a reseller - is that possible using these tools? This would be on the same server.
Hello @itcs,
To import a service plan navigate to Extensions > My Extensions > Hosting Plan Exporter > "Import" tab > + Add from File and select .json file:
Hello,
We're currently running Plesk 17.5 , therefore the following command is suitable in our case in order to export a Service Plan :
plesk bin service_plan --xml-info "Plan 1"
However , the "import Service Plan" process is missing from the article for this Plesk version (17.5)
Could you please check it and update it accordingly?
And how do you import an exported Service Plan?
