How To: API Authentication for BuddyPress
-
Hello,
I know the documentation says BP uses cookies for API authentication, but my install of BP allows any non-authenticated user to use the API and retrieve user data. (e.g. /wp-json/buddypress/v1/members/3)
I’ve also tried this through incognito/private browsers and also through curl from the command line.
Everything I’ve tried, without authenticating, returns the data.
I’ve also installed REST API Toolbox (plugin) – that helped me with requiring authentication for WP wp-json endpoints.
I don’t see a BP option anywhere to require authentication…
Am I missing something here?
Thank you in advance for the help!
