Unable to save your story

@vinuta Thank you for reaching out. The error you encountered possibly indicates there could be an issue communicating with the WordPress REST API or the REST API is not available or blocked. This might be caused by interference through another plugin or a firewall, or the WordPress setup.

– Could you tell me if the site you’re working on publicly accessible and could you please share a URL?

– Under Tools > Site Health > Status, check if there are any errors about the REST API (screenshot example)? Or if the REST API is available under Passed Tests on that screen (screenshot example)?

– Could you check for any browser console errors when this issue occurs?

@luckynasan Thanks for the response. Yes, previously we used JSON-based REST API plugin .

/**
 * Plugin Name: WP REST API
 * Description: JSON-based REST API for WordPress, developed as part of GSoC 2013.
 * Version: 1.2.5
 * Author: WP REST API Team
 * Author URI: https://wp-api.org/
 * Plugin URI: https://github.com/WP-API/WP-API
 */

this plugin instead WP core REST API. Now I have removed the plugin and using core REST API, but since the home url and site url are different I was not able to create story. Later I found the solution that in rest api URL I change the homeurl to site url so now its working.
So we are good.

I have another query. Can the web stories still work using the WP REST API Plugin by making any customization, please suggest. Why I want to have web stories to work along with the JSON-based REST API because, we have many END points currently used and these stopped working when I disabled the JSON-based REST API plugin and need to be migrated to WP REST API so this will take sometime. But we want the Web Stories to be created as early as possible. Please suggest.

@vinuta Unfortunately, the version referred to is too outdated to be supported. Web Stories only support core’s WP REST API.

We’ll mark this topic as resolved but please feel free to reach out with any other questions. Thank you.

Thank you.
