Contact Manager -> Communication Types API
Open Discussion
As a server administrator I would like to be able to set the contacts used in /var/cpanel/clevels.conf using an API call, to avoid having to manually adjust the settings in the file.
I like this idea 
cPanel, WebHost Manager and WHM are registered trademarks of cPanel, L.L.C. for providing its computer software that facilitates the management and configuration of Internet web servers.
For now, you can get by with a scripted approach using Perl's WWW::Mechanize library (or selenium, etc.).
I wrote a small script and pasted it up on GitHub based on WWW::Mechanize:
https://gist.github.com/troglodyne/a8fc15a7ea895777de2e372b64fc873b
Do be aware that the POST endpoint for scripts2/saveeditcontact will actually *set all values to zero* if you don't pass in every single key found in /var/cpanel/clevels.conf (in the example script I warn about it, but they can be passed in like --CONTACTAIM 1, ...). The script also has a --host flag if you don't wanna operate on 127.0.0.1.
