Get Use APIs – JSON Content Importer
The simplest method to link WordPress with external APIs JCI simplifies the task of retrieving data from a third-party REST API. The returned JSON-, XML, CSV, TXT-data can be neatly arranged and showcased on your WordPress site via a shortcode, a JCI Block or PHP. The plugin can generate a template for the data display. 20 seconds: Load API and display data 7 minutes: Basic intro to JCI free Examples, Preview Check out the live demonstration to explore how we’re interfacing with various APIs LIVE PREVIEW – WordPress and a external API Video: How to use the Wikipedia API Main Plugin Features Low code usage: Save time and avoid coding using an API Insert an API-URL into Step 1: Data is loaded, and and displayed.

Contact Form 7 Integration: Fill form and submit to API Important Note Starting with Version 2.0.11 Starting with version 2.0.11, any HTML code present in the shortcode or block is filtered to prevent dangerous code (e.g. JavaScript) from being output. However, if you want to allow certain tags or attributes as a deliberate choice: In the plugin’s “Basic Settings” there is a field called “Allow additional HTML tags (advanced)”. There you can enter comma-separated tags that should not be filtered out. For example, “iframe,script” would preserve these two tags in the HTML output. “tr#onclick” would preserve the “onclick” attribute in ”, which would otherwise be removed.
