Cannot Access REST APIs

Hi @akahky

Sorry for my late response! For urgent matters, please use the Help Beacon that you can open with the question mark “?” on the right bottom of each WPO365 configuration page in WP Admin.

Before I can adequately answer your question, I’d like to understand what yo wish to achieve. Your question here is “Cannot access REST APIs”. It is possible that this is the case because you configured the Intranet Authentication scenario (on the plugin’s Single Sign-on configuration page). If you selected this specific scenario, WPO365 redirects the request to – for example – https://your-website/wp-json/wp/v2/posts to Microsoft. To avoid that behavior, you must add /wp-json/ (or a more specific path) to the list of Pages freed from authentication (also on the plugin’s Single Sign-on page).

If you wish to enable authentication for a WordPress REST API endpoint, then you can either configure Entra ID based authentication (see https://docs.wpo365.com/article/147-azure-ad-based-protection-for-the-wordpress-rest-api) or WordPress cookie based authentication (see https://docs.wpo365.com/article/151-wordpress-cookies-based-protection-for-the-wordpress-rest-api). Please note that some of these options are premium paid options and require a WPO365 addon or bundle.

Hope this helps!
