I’m wondering this, too.

This has been asked before, https://forum.directadmin.com/threads/dumptokens-list.62429/ (it's not easy to get this variable), it is not well documented.

Since the OP was talking about welcome template (since that old time), For now, I can only think of 2 ways how to get this

1) using the welcome template with |DUMPTOKENS| (https://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=2114)

***WARNING, for this method, I must warn you that, you should not add |DUMPTOKENS| on a live template (such as welcome message), you might end up sending a lot personal information FROM THE DUMPTOKENS to your users. Don't be scared with this warning if you know what you are doing. Anyway if you want to continue:

First edit this (for user welcome message)

nano /usr/local/directadmin/data/users/admin/u_welcome.txt

and add this magic token |DUMPTOKENS| inside that a_welcome.txt to get all list of variables (put it on top):

|DUMPTOKENS|

Dear Customer,
TOKEN:



        Thank you for choosing our service to meet your web hosting needs.


Your account has been created with the following details:


Username:       |username|
Password:       |password|
Domain:         |domain|

Now, use ur working email to add a new user and you need to provide your email, to see the dump message:


The output you got from email might be like this:

OWNED=no
PORT=2222
SERVERNAME=yest.test.com
account=ON
additional_bandwidth=0
aftp=ON
api_with_password=yes
bandwidth=unlimited

and more ...

Now you can test this variable inside your welcome email. Done, you can remove the |DUMPTOKENS| variable from the template.


2nd way

I' m not so sure if the pre hook script variable can also be used with the template (need confirmation). so, if you want to get these variable, you can do the following:

1) So, before user is created, we are interested with the hook call user_create_pre.sh

2) We can create this pre script here (Directadmin 1.60+ ways):

mkdir -p /usr/local/directadmin/scripts/custom/user_create_pre

nano /usr/local/directadmin/scripts/custom/user_create_pre/dump.sh

Inside this file, paste the following script:

#!/bin/bash

script_path="$(dirname "$(readlink -f "$0")")"
script_name=$(basename -- "$0")
echo "The name of this script is: ${script_name}"
echo "==========="
env >"${script_path}/${script_name}.env"
echo "==========="
echo "The script ${script_name} has finished executed"

Make it executable:

chmod +x dump.sh

Now, create a new user and a new file called dump.env will be generated with many variables. To view the dumped variables you can do this:


cat /usr/local/directadmin/scripts/custom/user_create_pre/dump.env

Again for the second step, I'm not sure if some variables are actually compatible with the template but you can test them to see the correct output.
