EndPointy Menus adds custom REST API routes to expose your WordPress navigation menus as JSON.
Base namespace: endpointy-menus/v1
Endpoints:
-
GET /wp-json/endpointy-menus/v1/menusReturns all registered menus with locations and items. -
GET /wp-json/endpointy-menus/v1/menus/<id>Returns a single menu and its items by menu ID. -
GET /wp-json/endpointy-menus/v1/locationsReturns all registered menu locations with assigned menus. -
GET /wp-json/endpointy-menus/v1/locations/<location>Returns a menu assigned to a specific location (e.g., ‘primary’, ‘footer’).
Query Parameters:
nested=true– Returns menu items in a hierarchical tree structure with parent-child relationships. Example:/wp-json/endpointy-menus/v1/menus/2?nested=true
This is useful for headless WordPress setups or any external app that needs to read your menu structure.
