Reply To: Security WP REST API – Web Scraping

You can scrape data from the website from the HTML too, there’s nothing special about the API in that regard just because it’s JSON.

I understand it’s possible to scrape from html.

But to scrape the rest api seems way too easy. Just need the link, and they can grab the content of any wordpress site.

What I want to know is if there is a way to control that. Limit access to the server itself or to specific apps.

And if currently not, is there a way to alter the url to a customized one, where possibly only someone very knowledgeable could find out.

Rule for anti-scraping or anything, really: There is no need to make it easy for those who steal our content, when there is an option to do otherwise.

Can anyone offer some useful advice please?

And please, if you’re not going to help, don’t respond.

My understanding is that if your content is displayed to a user, it can be scraped. The CloudFlare free tier offers a feature called Scrape Shield that – in addition to email obfuscation and hotlink protection – will allow you to hide selected content from “suspicious visitors” using Server Side Excludes.

A different approach, only if you do not need or use Rest API except for logged-in users …

Thanks for the reply.

Let’s forget about scraping.

What if I would like to use the Rest API that will utilize user data?

Is there a way to secure that info?
