cPanel event not triggering the execution of my script. Am I doing it wrong?

Hi, I'm using the manage_hooks script to hook into some MySQL related events like Mysql::create_user and Mysql::delete_user among others. Here's the one-liner I'm running: /usr/local/cpanel/bin/manage_hooks add script /home/scripts/syncup.sh --category Cpanel --event 'Mysql::create_user' --stage post --manual 1
The run confirms the hook has been registered: Added hook for Cpanel::Mysql::create_user to hooks registry
Unfortunately these events are not triggering my script (script syncup.sh is executable with the executable bit set for the directories as well). Is this the right way to hook into these events and trigger a script run? Thank you

  Hi @stards , For Cpanel events, you have to specify the API system in addition to the module/function, API::Module::function
  . For your case, this would be UAPI::Mysql::create_user
  . Additionally, you can turn on Standardized Hooks - Debug Mode in WHM >> Tweak Settings, then call the API using the CLI commands. As part of the return, if a hook is registered to the API event, it will list pre- and post- conditions with any hooks registered for it.
