How do I receive data from REST API and display it through Woocommerce?

  • Hey people,

    I am having trouble with connecting to and receiving data from REST API and displaying it on the screen. The idea is that I am going to get the data from a wholesaler and simply display it. At the moment I am using woocommerce, however, I am open to other suggestions if that is not the best way. So how do I do that? Are there any useful guides I can follow?

  • You are aware that API stands for Application Programming Interface? That means you need code to do anything with it, and it would be different for each API.
    If your wholesaler has a feed, it would be easier. There are plugins to manipulate feeds. If it truly is an API, you will need to get the specs from them or use code they provide.

    So, I have the documentation for the data which the wholesaler is sending through the API. T
    They have provided me only with instructions and code to connect to the API, nothing about how to extract that information and display it.

    That’s typical since they don’t know what you would be using for output.
    There are a lot of plugins around that interface with an API and output it. Why don’t you read the code for a few and that will help you understand. You might even find one you could swap out the API part and be very close to what you want.
