Posts restricted in REST API | WordPress.org

Hi,

I’m using Groups on a website where all the front end will be soon in React.
So, all the queries will be made with REST API. Unfortunately, I noticed that posts with restrictions are not in /wp-json/wp/v2/posts, even if my current user shoud see the posts.

Is this normal ?

Thanks,

Julie.

Hi Julie,

That’s a good case to use Groups! Can you please let us know how have you tested this? I’m asking because even if you’re logged in with an authorized user on the WordPress back end, this does not imply that your REST API request is duly authorized to access those posts. Your request will need to be duly authorized to have those restricted posts included. See https://developer.wordpress.org/rest-api/using-the-rest-api/authentication/ and for your test you can use https://github.com/WP-API/Basic-Auth (*not* for production).

Cheers
