Question

How to manage the email notifications from Tools & Settings > Notifications list via CLI?

For example, for the following components:

WP Toolkit
Imunify

Answer

Use the plesk bin notification utility. The general syntax is as follows:

# plesk bin notification --update -code <notification code> -send2admin false -send2reseller false -send2client false -send2email false

where:

<notification code> - the required notification's code. Can be looked up in Plesk documentation or the ModuleSettings database table
-send2admin - determines whether or not the notification will be sent to the Administrator. Can be set to true or false
-send2reseller - determines whether or not the notification will be sent to the resellers. Can be set to true or false
-send2client - determines whether or not the notification will be sent to the customers. Can be set to true or false
-send2email - determines whether or not the notification will be sent to a specific email address set in Tools & Settings > Notifications. Can be set to true or false

Visit the Plesk documentation page for additional details.
