Registering new DO users via API?

Posted on June 26, 2017

I am looking into providing an easy solution for people to deploy ready-to-use droplets. Basically I want to resell DO, for free. I understand how to implement deployment via API, but DO user should already exist in order to use the API. DO registration is not always a simple thing for non-tech people. My end goal is a single-click solution to deploy droplets for new users, so I need to somehow be able to register new users via API. Is this possible to become DO partner and get access to new users registration API?

Hi @amima

Good question. Do not expect the API to ever allow the creation of users, since DO has plenty to deal with in combating fake/fraud accounts as it is today. I would recommend that you send a message to support asking about the partnership.
