Calling API retrieves just a specific amount of data using WPCode… Any idea?

I’m working on a WP website where we have to call an API to retrieve some data. This API contains the information of too many users (more than 200), each of which containing bio, skills, degrees, etc.

The problem is that the API works perfectly in Postman, giving us everything we need to be fetched. I added my logic within a PHP snippet using WPCode plugin, but everytime I want to activate it and clik the update button, the browser tab reloads itself until it gives me 14 users of the API, and then it stops reloading and gives me 503 error. And after that, when I want to activate the snippet again, to test it, it says “This snippet was automatically deactivated because of a fatal error at 08:28:10 on 2025-01-25 (16 minutes ago)” and the error is not API-side, since I checked the user no. 14 or even 15 API and all the key/values are there.

Any idea?

Hi @sinahosseinigst,

There are likely 2 separate issues here.
Are you using the WordPress http methods like wp_remote_get? Those have a timeout of 5 seconds and that may be timing out your requests if it’s a large dataset.

If you get a fatal error in the snippet, that may be from the PHP code that is executed after the request ends. Can you please enable error logging in the WPCode Settings and then share the error that you are getting for this snippet?

Hello there @gripgrip !

Thanks for the answer, can you please read the updated version of my problem here on Reddit? I explained better. Also, read the comments if possible!

However, regarding your questions: I used wp_remote_get for sure.

Also, there isn’t even one error in debug.log, and it’s super weird.

Hi @sinahosseinigst,

Can you please share the code that you are using? You can remove the API URL and any sensitive data, but it would help to see the code you are using in this snippet.
