Problem
How do I Unsuspend a Client (end-user) under my Partner account using the Partner API?
Unsuspending a client end-user using the RESTful Partner API?
Solution
The following example of code shows you how to unsuspend a client (end-user) under your partner account.
Note, Unsuspending (enabling) a client will enable the client from a previous suspend/disable but it only enables the client. It will not enable & unsuspend the services under the client. For this you will need to call /live_services/suspension for each service to reactivate.
Prerequisites
To use the Partner API you must meet the following criteria
- Have a working development environment.
- Have an active Partner account. If you need a partner account you can sign up here.
- Enabled your account to use the API and set the access controls.
- Have valid API Credentials.
- Optional - Setup your development environment to initially use the Sandbox Testing Portal.
For Partner API reference documentation please see https://portal.my-engine.com/apidocs/index.html
Example Code
The examples below uses the sandbox. For a production environment remember to change the following:
- API Url
- Partner ID
- Partner API Key

$apiPartnerId = "<PartnerID>";
$apiSecretKey = "___PartnerKey___";
$apiUrl = "https://sandbox.my-engine.com/api-v1/clients";
$crlf = "<br />";
// Client ID to unsuspend
$clientid = "9987608";
// Create the array for the client data
$client = array();
$client["enable"] = 1;
// Init Curl
$curl = curl_init();
// API Authentication:
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH, CURLAUTH_BASIC);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_USERPWD, "$apiPartnerId:$apiSecretKey");
// Set Curl Options
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, $apiUrl . '/' . $clientid . '/enabled');
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
// API PATCH
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, 'PATCH');
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, json_encode($client));
// Tell it we're sending a JSON set of data in the POST
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array(
'Content-Type: application/json',
));
// API PATCH
$jsonResult = curl_exec($curl);
// Check for a valid HTTP 200 success and process the returned result
// or handler the failure.
if (curl_getinfo($curl, CURLINFO_RESPONSE_CODE) == 200) {
$result = json_decode($jsonResult, true);
if (json_last_error() == JSON_ERROR_NONE) {
