WordPress: Plugins

Install WordPress plugins

Install one or more plugins on an existing WordPress installation.

Provide the WordPress installation (software) identifier in the path. It can be obtained from GET /api/hosting/v1/wordpress/installations (the id field). Use GET /api/hosting/v1/wordpress/plugins to discover the plugin slugs available for installation.

This operation is asynchronous: a successful response only means the install job has been queued, not that the plugins are ready.
