REST API Endpoints
GravityView 2.0 features a new simple but powerful REST API that allows read-only access to Views and Entries.
There are four endpoints in the /wp-json/gravityview/v1/
namespace:
/views
Returns a list of all the views available to the current user along with the needed fields to render their layouts and some additional information. Form/View administrators can access the connected form, View settings, etc.
URL Parameter | What it does | Default Value |
---|---|---|
page |
Set the current page number | 1 |
limit |
Set the number of results returned per page. Set to 0 for all Views. |
10 |
/views/$id
Same as /views
but for one specific View.
/views/$id/entries.json or (.html, .csv, or .tsv)
Returns all the entries under the select View. Available in .json
, .html
, .csv
, and .tsv
format (template used will be the current View template, but can be overridden as needed under a REST context). Only directory-mode entry fields will be included. Extra fields can be added via the gravityview/rest/entry/fields
filter.
The structure returned is quite simple - a key-value object with ID -> value.
URL Parameter | What it does | Default Value |
---|---|---|
page |
Set the current page number | 1 |
limit |
Set the number of results returned per page. Set to 0 for all entries. |
10 |
post_id |
Set the "parent" Post or Page ID for the View, as if the View were embedded. | NULL |
/views/$id/entries/$id.json (or .html)
The same as entries.json
, but only single-mode entry fields will be included. The same filter gravityview/rest/entry/fields
can be used to alter this behavior.
.html
format instead of .json
will return HTML code instead. Useful for lazy-loading pagination, etc.
URL Parameter | What it does | Default Value |
---|---|---|
post_id |
Set the "parent" Post or Page ID for the View, as if the View were embedded. | NULL |
Authentication
For Views based on a user's login status ( filter entries created by logged in user , for example) WordPress REST API authentication is required, specifically the X-WP-Nonce
header, in which all requests are considered unauthenticated. For more information, check out the official REST API documentation here.
