API access to WordPress Blog posts
-
Hello, I’m currently building an external non-wordpress website that can hopefully access WordPress blog data. Ideally, we build a blog/blog posts on wordpress and then our external site can query the WordPress API for the blog posts. However, after talking to support they’ve only led me to a 3rd party application connection, but that isn’t our use case. Is it possible to do an API call with an API key to access said data? Thanks in advance.
I don’t have a site with WordPress.com yet

Hi! If you’re using the Rest API built into individual WordPress installations, these resources will help:
https://developer.wordpress.org/rest-api/And if you’re using the API for WordPress.com and Jetpack-connected sites, you would need to set up an application through us (which gives you client keys and what not)
https://developer.wordpress.com/docs/api/getting-started/I’m not a developer, but I’m guessing those two links should get you started on the right path, depending on what you’re hoping to do! And if you’re looking for help with the WordPress Rest API, note there’s a developer forum here, too:
https://wordpress.org/support/forum/wp-advanced/Hoping this helps!
