Restrict Content Pro REST API

The Restrict Content Pro REST API add-on is an official extension that exposes a complete RESTful API for the core of the popular WordPress membership plugin. Designed for developers and technical teams who need to manage membership data beyond the admin panel, this add-on allows CRUD operations (create, read, update, and delete) on key entities such as members, payments, subscriptions, and customers through structured and versioned endpoints.

The API is available at the endpoint /wp-json/rcp/ and uses JSON format for all requests and responses, ensuring simple and clear data handling in any development environment. Each API version is accessible through versioned routes, ensuring that future changes do not break existing integrations. Authentication is done through WordPress user accounts with the necessary permissions, following WordPress REST API authentication standards.

This add-on transforms your membership site into a connectable and extensible platform, ideal for headless architectures, integrations with mobile applications, custom dashboards, and complex automations. Developers can sync user data between platforms, build custom reports and statistics on revenue and signups, and automate workflows that reduce manual work.

Its main benefits include:

• Complete data management: Full control over members, payments, and subscriptions through simple API requests.
• Integration with external systems: Seamless connection with mobile apps, custom dashboards, and third-party tools.
• Process automation: Real-time data synchronization and event-based action triggers.
• Access to statistics: Revenue data and signup metrics to build custom reports.
• Standard JSON format: Clean data exchange compatible with most development environments.
• API versioning: Versioned routes that ensure long-term stability and compatibility.

If you manage a membership site with Restrict Content Pro and need to bring your data to other applications, build custom integrations, or automate subscriber management, this add-on is the piece that connects your WordPress with the rest of your technology ecosystem.
