    Hello!
    Can I get the groups data by some public route? When I trying to fetch it from https://localhost:8080/wp-json/tag-groups/v1/groups/, I’m getting the following error:

    {
    "code": "rest_forbidden",
    "data": {
        "status": 401
    }
}

    The other routes, like https://localhost:8080/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/ works fine.

  • The route is correct. Maybe it is a bug. I will check if I can find out more.

    I think, it has to do with the permission. There is a new permission callback, which is probably too strict.

    It will be fixed in the next release.

    If you need a quick fix, you can go to /include/helpers/class.rest_api.php and replace all
    return current_user_can( 'edit_posts' );
    by
    return true;

    That restores the previous behavior that also visitors can access this data. (Since it’s nothing confidential.)
