Rest Route No Longer Public?

    I want to get a bit of clarification on something. I have read a number of other support requests in this forum in which the response has said something like:

    “the free plan of the plugin only supports the capabilities for authenticating WordPress native REST endpoints and the features for authenticating custom build or 3rd-party plugin endpoints along with more security are available in the pro plans only.

    With the free plan, you can either only block them from access or open them publicly using their own default authentication if any.”

    To me this seems to imply that we should be able to still create and use public rest routes with this plugin, correct?

    We have a number of simple public rest routes that work totally fine when the plugin is off (no authentication or special user permissions needed whatsoever), but when the plugin is turned on (it is being used for completely unrelated purpose) these public rest routes now return a “Restricted” error. Is this the intended behavior? And if so how do we “open them publicly” again as is stated in the quote above is possible on the free plan?

    Hi @annacocreatex,

    Thanks for reaching out.

    Yes, you can go to the plugin’s Protected REST API Setting and can uncheck those endpoints which you want to make public and save the settings.

    This will allow you to protect only those endpoints which you want while the rest can be accessible publicly as it works without using the plugin.

    Hope this helps and feel free to ask if you have any other questions. We’d be happy to help.

    Thanks,
