“Unlocking Hidden Potential: How WordPress Can Transform Your Data Entry into a Powerful Central API!”
The easiest and most standard way to achieve this is by extending one of the REST API controller classes. For maximum control over the output, you may want to extend the base WP_REST_Controller class itself.
You can choose to have your routes publicly accessible if the permission_callback
argument is set to the __return_true
function or you can choose to lock down calls using any permission scheme you want.
The recommended way of locking down access is behind a capability check, i.e. a call to current_user_can
. You can use the AAM Access Policies mentioned above to grant or withdraw permission from individual roles or users, and you can use WordPress’ application passwords to authenticate API requests.
