Create account

The Create account method is used for creating a new account of the current reseller or any of its downstream resellers.

The account will be created without the Terms and Conditions agreement accepted. On the first signing in to the Customer Control Panel, the account will be prompted to accept the agreement (see Log in to the Customer Control Panel).

A new user with the Owner access rights will be created with the Privacy Policy agreement accepted.

The account will be created with the Work permit for postpaid = Verification not performed parameter (see Ordering a postpaid Subscription to a commercial period).

An API token of a manager is required for authorization. To get an API token via the Operator Control Panel, see Viewing and updating Manager's information.

The manager's API token specified in an API request determines:

The role and access level of the manager, which determine the availability of a method.
The current reseller and downstream resellers accessible within a method.
