Hetzner Cloud Module Usage and Management

"WISECP + Hetzner Cloud" module has been developed as fully automatic and manageable. With just a few adjustments, you can start selling cloud servers right away.

Importing Server Types from Hetzner Cloud

You don't need to add the server packages in your "Hetzner Cloud" console to WISECP one at a time. With a single click, all server packages are transferred to your system as product packages in seconds.

1. Follow the path "Admin Area > Services > Hosting Management > Hetzner Cloud"
2. Click on the green button that appears in the middle of the page since it's the first time to install. After that, all server types in your Hetzner Cloud panel will be imported automatically.
3. At this stage, all server types in the server creation stage of your Hetzner Cloud console are listed on a type-based basis. You can make adjustments in bulk through this list as you wish.

Editing Server Packages

The module "WISECP + Hetzner Cloud" has a unique feature for bulk editing of server packages. After importing server types, you can now make bulk adjustments and edits.

The descriptions of the titles in the list are as follows;

• NAME : You can define a title for the server package. 
• TRAFFIC : You can define the monthly traffic information that server packages have.
• NETWORK : If your Hetzner Cloud console has a network that you created earlier, you can choose it in bulk or on a product basis.
• LOCATION : You can choose it in bulk or on a product basis which Location/DC to create server packages.
• CATEGORY : You can choose in bulk or on a product-by-product basis which WISECP category the server packages belong to.
• PRICE (€) : You can set a sales price for server packages. (On the left side, there is a cost.)

Bulk Price Update

Optionally, you can batch update the prices of all server product packages by setting a profit rate. The system will determine the selling price by adding the rate of profit defined above the Hetzner Cloud costs. You can take a look at the upper right corner of the page for this.

Importing Existing Services from the Hetzner Cloud

With the WISECP + Hetzner Cloud module, you can easily transfer existing server services previously created on your Hetzner Cloud console to your customers in WISECP. To do this, follow the steps below.

1. Follow the path "Admin Area > Services > Hosting Management > Hetzner Cloud"
2. Click on the "IMPORT" button on the top left of the page.

4. In the next step, all available server services in your Hetzner Cloud console will be listed. You can complete the import process by providing the necessary definitions through this list.

Fully Automatic Add-on Sales and Management

The WISECP + Hetzner Cloud module automatically enables add-ons, adjusts and automatically establishes the necessary connections with server product packages so that you can offer additional services in addition to server sales. After module activation, you do not need to do any special action for add-ons.

All settings are made automatically by WISECP. Optionally, you can change the "quantity / price" information on the add-ons according to yourself. However, you should not delete the add-ons created for the Hetzner Cloud module. (However, you can deactivate it.)

Automatic Suspension and Cancellation of Add-ons

Tracking additional service sales is generally complex. However, with the WISECP + Hetzner Cloud module, it is very easy to follow the additional services after sales.

With the WISECP + Hetzner Cloud module, the system automatically suspends the additional service if additional service is not renewed. This also means that the additional service is stopped via the API. Your customer notices that the additional service has been stopped and pays you immediately.

If the service that is not renewed is canceled, it also means that the additional service is deleted through the API.

This way, you are protected from unnecessary costs and invoice charges on Hetzner Cloud.
