## UniFi Controller API client class
A PHP class that provides access to Ubiquiti's [**UniFi Network Application**](https://unifi-network.ui.com/) API.
This class is used by our API Browser tool, which can be found
[here](https://github.com/Art-of-WiFi/UniFi-API-browser).
The package can be installed manually or by using
composer/[packagist](https://packagist.org/packages/art-of-wifi/unifi-api-client) for
easy inclusion in your projects. See the [installation instructions](#Installation) below for more details.
## Supported Versions
| Software | Versions |
|--------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------|
| UniFi Network Application/controller | 5.X.X, 6.X.X, 7.X.X, 8.X.X (**8.5.6 is confirmed**) |
| UniFi OS | 3.X, 4.X (**4.1.15 is confirmed**) |
## Requirements
- a server with:
- PHP **7.4.0** or higher (use version [1.1.83](https://github.com/Art-of-WiFi/UniFi-API-client/releases/tag/v1.1.83)
for PHP 7.3.x and lower)
- PHP json and PHP cURL modules
- tested on Apache 2.4 with PHP 7.4.27 and cURL 7.60.0 and with PHP 8.3.11 and cURL 7.81.0
- direct network connectivity between this server and the host and port (usually TCP port 8443 or port 443 for
UniFi OS) where the UniFi Controller is running
- you **must** use an **account with local access permissions** to access the UniFi Controller API through this class
- do not use UniFi Cloud accounts and do not enable 2FA for the accounts that you use with this class
## UniFi OS Support
Support for UniFi OS-based controllers has been added as of version 1.1.47. These devices/services have been verified
to work:
- UniFi Dream Router (UDR)
- UniFi Dream Machine (UDM)
- UniFi Dream Machine Pro (UDM PRO)
- UniFi Cloud Key Gen2 (UCK G2), firmware version 2.0.24 or higher
- UniFi Cloud Key Gen2 Plus (UCK G2 Plus), firmware version 2.0.24 or higher
- UniFi Express (UX)
- UniFi Dream Wall (UDW)
- UniFi Cloud Gateway Ultra (UCG-Ultra)
- UniFi CloudKey Enterprise (CK-Enterprise)
- UniFi Enterprise Fortress Gateway (EFG)
- Official UniFi Hosting, details [here](https://help.ui.com/hc/en-us/articles/4415364143511)
The class automatically detects UniFi OS consoles and adjusts the URLs and several functions/methods accordingly.
UniFi OS-based controllers require you to connect using port **443** instead of **8443** which is used for
"software-based" controllers. If your own code implements strict validation of the URL that is passed to the
constructor, please adapt your logic to allow URLs without a port suffix or with port 443 when working with a
UniFi OS-based controller.
### Remote API access to UniFi OS-based controllers
When connecting to a UniFi OS-based gateway through the WAN interface, you need to create a specific firewall rule to
allow this. See this blog post on the Art of WiFi website for more details:
https://artofwifi.net/blog/how-to-access-the-unifi-controller-by-wan-ip-or-hostname-on-a-udm-pro
The "custom firewall rule" approach described there is the recommended method.
## Upgrading from a previous version
When upgrading from a version before **1.1.84**, please:
- make sure you are using PHP **7.4** or higher
- test the client with your code for any breaking changes; the class methods now have strict parameter type hints and
response types which can break your code in certain cases where the wrong type is passed or a different response type
is expected back
## Installation
Use [Composer](#composer), [Git](#git) or simply [Download the Release](#download-the-release) to install the
API client class.
### Composer
The preferred installation method is through [composer](https://getcomposer.org).
Follow these [installation instructions](https://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md) if you don't have composer
installed already.
Once composer is installed, simply execute this command from the shell in your project
directory:
```sh
composer require art-of-wifi/unifi-api-client
```
Or manually add the package to your composer.json file:
```javascript
{
"require": {
"art-of-wifi/unifi-api-client": "^1.1"
}
}
```
Finally, be sure to include the composer autoloader in your code if your framework doesn't already do this for you:
```php
/**
* load the class using the composer autoloader
*/
require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';
```
### Git
Execute the following `git` command from the shell in your project directory:
```sh
git clone https://github.com/Art-of-WiFi/UniFi-API-client.git
```
When git is done cloning, include the file containing the class like so in your code:
```php
/**
* load the class directly instead of using the composer autoloader
*/
require_once 'path/to/src/Client.php';
```
### Download the Release
If you prefer not to use composer or git,
simply [download the package](https://github.com/Art-of-WiFi/UniFi-API-client/archive/master.zip), unpack the zip
file, then include the file containing the class in your code like so:
```php
/**
* load the class directly instead of using the composer autoloader
*/
require_once 'path/to/src/Client.php';
```
## Example usage
A basic example how to use the class:
```php
/**
* load the class using the composer autoloader
*/
require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';
/**
* initialize the UniFi API connection class, log in to the controller and request the alarms collection
* (this example assumes you have already assigned the correct values to the variables used)
*/
$unifi_connection = new UniFi_API\Client($controller_user, $controller_password, $controller_url, $site_id, $controller_version, true);
$login = $unifi_connection->login();
$results = $unifi_connection->list_alarms(); // returns a PHP array containing alarm objects
```
Please refer to the `examples/` directory for some more detailed examples which can be used as a starting point for your
own PHP code.
#### IMPORTANT NOTES:
1. In the above example, `$site_id` is the short site "name" (usually 8 characters long) that is visible in the URL when
managing the site in the UniFi Network Controller. For example with this URL:
`https://<controller IP address or FQDN>:8443/manage/site/jl3z2shm/dashboard`
`jl3z2shm` is the short site "name" and the value to assign to $site_id.
2. The 6th optional parameter that is passed to the constructor in the above example (`true`), enables validation of
the controller's SSL certificate which is otherwise **disabled** by default. It is **highly recommended** to enable
this feature in production environments where you have a valid SSL cert installed on the UniFi Controller that is
associated with the FQDN in the `controller_url` parameter. This option was added with API client version 1.1.16.
3. Using an administrator account (`$controller_user` in the above example) with **read-only** permissions can limit
visibility on certain collection/object properties. See this
[issue](https://github.com/Art-of-WiFi/UniFi-API-client/issues/129) and this
[issue](https://github.com/Art-of-WiFi/UniFi-API-browser/issues/94) for an example where the WPA2 password isn't
visible for **read-only** administrator accounts.
