# redirections won’t load; false REST api errors

 * Used this for years with no problems. Now suddenly not working although we haven’t
   installed anything new in a long time.
 * In the console I’m seeing endless looping attempts by the plugin to call files
   in a folder that doesn’t exist:
 * /wp-json/redirection/
 * The plugin status check shows everything as GOOD, but it cannot connect to the
   REST API even though WP’s Site Health shows Rest is working properly.
 * Any ideas?

 * `/wp-json/` is your WordPress REST API, it isn’t a real folder. Something must
   have changed on your site to affect the REST API requests, and this is usually
   caused by server changes, security software, plugin updates, etc
