Hostinger

Hostinger

This connector works with a Hostinger account through the Hostinger public API (https://developers.hostinger.com): VPS (machines, power, metrics, actions, backups, snapshots, SSH keys, Docker projects, firewalls), domains (portfolio, availability, nameservers, forwarding, WHOIS profiles), DNS zones and their snapshots, billing (subscriptions, payment methods and the price catalog, read-only) and web hosting (orders, websites, WordPress installations, databases, cron jobs, cache).

Setup (2 minutes)

1. Sign in to hPanel and open Account, then API (https://hpanel.hostinger.com/profile/api), and create a new token. Pick an expiry; the token has the same rights as your hPanel user.
2. Paste it into HOSTINGER_API_TOKEN. It is sent as Authorization: Bearer <token>.
3. Run hostinger_list_subscriptions to check the token.

Nothing here buys anything: ordering VPS plans or domains, payment method changes and subscription renewals stay in hPanel.

VPS

• Find a machine: hostinger_list_virtual_machines, then hostinger_get_virtual_machine with its numeric id. hostinger_get_vm_metrics gives CPU, memory, disk, traffic and uptime for a period (both dates required).
• Power: hostinger_start_vm, hostinger_stop_vm, hostinger_restart_vm; hostinger_set_vm_hostname renames it. Each write answers with an action: follow it with hostinger_get_vm_action or hostinger_list_vm_actions (states created, sent, delayed, success, error). While actions_lock is locked, a new action is refused.
• Recovery: hostinger_list_vm_backups and hostinger_restore_vm_backup; hostinger_get_vm_snapshot, hostinger_create_vm_snapshot (replaces the existing snapshot) and hostinger_restore_vm_snapshot.
• Access and setup facts: hostinger_list_vm_ssh_keys, hostinger_list_vps_templates, hostinger_list_vps_data_centers.
• Docker manager: hostinger_list_docker_projects, hostinger_get_docker_project_containers, hostinger_get_docker_project_logs, hostinger_restart_docker_project.
• Firewalls: hostinger_list_firewalls, hostinger_get_firewall, hostinger_create_firewall, hostinger_create_firewall_rule, hostinger_update_firewall_rule, hostinger_delete_firewall_rule, then hostinger_sync_firewall so the machines get the new rules. hostinger_activate_firewall and hostinger_deactivate_firewall attach or detach a firewall from a VPS. A firewall drops everything no rule accepts: make sure SSH (22) stays allowed before activating or syncing.

Domains and DNS

• hostinger_list_domains, hostinger_get_domain, hostinger_get_domain_renewal, hostinger_get_domain_forwarding, hostinger_list_whois_profiles; hostinger_check_domain_availability before suggesting a name; hostinger_update_domain_nameservers to move DNS elsewhere.
• DNS (domains on Hostinger nameservers): hostinger_get_dns_records first. Test changes with hostinger_validate_dns_records, apply them with hostinger_update_dns_records, remove whole record sets with hostinger_delete_dns_records. Every change leaves a snapshot: hostinger_list_dns_snapshots, hostinger_get_dns_snapshot and hostinger_restore_dns_snapshot undo it. In zone, name is relative to the domain (@ for the domain itself, www), CNAME and NS targets end with a dot, MX content is <priority> <host>.

Billing (read-only): hostinger_list_subscriptions, hostinger_list_payment_methods, hostinger_get_catalog (filter by category and name; the full catalog is long).

Web hosting: hostinger_list_hosting_orders and hostinger_list_websites give the order ids and the hosting account user names (u123456789) that hostinger_list_databases and hostinger_list_cron_jobs need; hostinger_list_wordpress_installations lists WordPress sites; hostinger_clear_website_cache clears a site's cache.

Confirm before every write: power changes, restores, snapshots, firewall changes, nameserver and DNS changes can take sites, email or SSH access offline. Name the machine or domain and the effect, show the records or rules, and wait for the user's yes. Backup and snapshot restores overwrite all data on the VPS and cannot be undone.

Reading the answers: VPS, action, backup, firewall and rule ids are integers. Times are ISO 8601 in UTC; metrics are keyed by Unix timestamps. Prices are in cents (1799 = 17.99) of currency_code. Memory, disk and bandwidth of a VPS are in MB. Domain contacts and WHOIS profiles hold personal data: show only what the task needs.

Paging: lists with page return meta with current_page, per_page and total; ask for the next page while current_page * per_page < total. VPS, domain, DNS and billing lists without page return everything at once.

Limits and errors: about 90 requests a minute per token; on 429 wait for Retry-After seconds (repeated overruns can block the IP for a while). 401 means a wrong, revoked or expired token, 404 an id or domain that is not in this account, 422 invalid input (the answer names the field), 409 or a locked action means the VPS is still busy with another action. Error answers carry a correlation_id for Hostinger support.
