Plesk create subdomains and databases dynamically

I am trying to create subdomains and databases using PHP in Plesk. I am looking at their API documentation, but I can’t figure out how to do both of these things, so if you could help me, it would be great!

    a little bit later. To create a subdomain:

    /usr/local/psa/bin/subdomain -c %subdomain% -www-root %subdomain% -php true -ssi true -d %domain%

    The database I usually create directly to MySQL with CREATE DATABASE.

    There is no able to create database for subdomain, only for domain/subscription.
    Here the API request:

    <packet version="1.6.3.0">
<database>
<add-db>
   <webspace-id>2</webspace-id>
   <name>MyBase</name>
   <type>mysql</type>
</add-db>
</database>
</packet>

    where webspace-id – it’a id of domain(not a subdomain) of your subdomain.

    If you try to create db on subdomain, you will receive following response:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<packet version="1.6.3.0">
  <database>
    <add-db>
      <result>
        <status>error</status>
        <errcode>1023</errcode>
        <errtext>This object can be created **only in a webspace**.</errtext>
      </result>
    </add-db>
  </database>
</packet>

    So, first of all you need to get info about parent domain of subdomain:

    <packet version="1.5.2.0">
<subdomain>
<get>
   <filter>
      <name>sub.domain.com</name>
   </filter>
</get>
</subdomain>
</packet>

    Then get id of parent:

    <packet version="1.6.3.0">
<webspace>
<get>
   <filter>
      <name>domain.com</name>
   </filter>
   <dataset>
      <gen_info/>
   </dataset>
</get>
</webspace>
</packet>

    Then create database on parent using received id.
