Hi,

Is it possible to disable webgui in ProxmoxVE and use only proxmox api and cli?

e.g. you could block the port to reach the UI with a firewall.

Also, is it possible to install only the proxmox api function etc. on ubuntu etc.?

Installing on top of Ubuntu is not supported and will most likely not work without modifications to the packages. Proxmox VE is designed to run on top of Debian.

Sorry for the late reply, I understand, is it possible to run it on debian?

Yes but you really need to know what you are doing. For example the standard debian kernel doesn't support ZFS:

Proxmox VE ships as a set of Debian packages and can be installed on top of a standard Debian installation. After configuring the repositories you need to run the following commands:
# apt-get update
# apt-get install proxmox-ve
Installing on top of an existing Debian installation looks easy, but it presumes that the base system has been installed correctly and that you know how you want to configure and use the local storage. You also need to configure the network manually.
In general, this is not trivial, especially when LVM or ZFS is used.
A detailed step by step how-to can be found on the wiki ( https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Install_Proxmox_VE_on_Debian_12_Bookworm ).
