Does Standalone Boos Require XML-RPC?

Hey @itsgotime,

Jetpack’s family of plugins all require access to XML-RPC to connect your site to WordPress.com’s servers. This article explains more about Jetpack’s usage of XML-RPC, and how we use it: https://jetpack.com/support/jetpack-and-xml-rpc/

If you don’t want to allow anything to be able to make requests via XML-RPC, it is possible to only allow our IP addresses to access it. The IP addresses can be found here: https://jetpack.com/support/how-to-allowlist-jetpack-ip/

You can learn more about what data is sent via XML-RPC when using Jetpack Boost here: https://jetpack.com/support/jetpack-boost/#privacy
