Wordpress REST API problem

[Admin]

@MrMorcego

I think some kind of firewall is blocking the URL of the Rest API.

I strongly doubt that. It shouldn’t be.

The article shared above specifically states the following:

What still works normally

The security system only affects access to your website from external sources. These features work perfectly fine:

Same-domain JavaScript requests

• AJAX calls within your own website work fine
• Single Page Applications (SPAs) can call APIs on the same domain
• JavaScript can fetch data from your own site’s endpoints

So access from your browser to the REST API is not affected by this.

As for why it doesn’t work, I don’t know, because it should work.

Do you have any further information about this issue? Checking the Network tab in your browser could help a lot to determine the exact nature of this 403 response.
