 * Hi, I am currently initiating development for my website in which I want users
   to be automatically sign up on **LMS Lifter** too as students after they sign
   up on my site. According to
 * > API documentations
 * , the URL given on which I will be requesting to create user is
 * `POST https://developer.lifterlms.com/wp-json/llms/v1/students`
    But it is giving
   me error of
 * `{"code"=>"rest_no_route", "message"=>"No route was found matching the URL and
   request method", "data"=>{"status"=>404}}`
 * Any help in this would be highly appreciated

 * All API requests should be made to YOUR website, not to our website where the
   documentation lives.
 * The URLs displayed there are supposed to be examples that you can replace with
   your website’s URL.
 * Up until sometime recently the url was `https://example.tld` but that changed.
   I’m not sure when — something must have changed in the library we use to build
   our docs and I didn’t notice it during our last deployment. I’ll get that fixed
   to avoid further confusion in the future.

   resolved. Don’t worry, if you have more questions or still need help just hit

 * [@jnr4u2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jnr4u2/) I need the request URL
   to which I will be sending my parameters, I am not sure if I have to put my website’s
   URL in the request. `https://example.tld` does not work at all, any help in the
   case would be highly appreciated.

 * Have a look at our updated documentation around the “Base URL”: [https://developer.lifterlms.com/rest-api/#section/Base-URL](https://developer.lifterlms.com/rest-api/#section/Base-URL)
 * In short: [https://example.tld](https://example.tld) is an example top level 
   domain. It *will never work* because this is a fake URL used to build documentation
   examples, not an actual real live working URL that’s intended to be used.
 * The REST API is distributed with the plugin and therefore accessible on your 
   site.
 * You’ll need to use your website’s URL.
 * Hope that helps,
