Descrizione

JSON API Plugin, that is required, was closed on August 7, 2019 from WordPress repository. You can download JSON API Plugin from https://github.com/PI-Media/json-api until it is republished and available on WordPress.
Features include:

The plugin was created for mobile apps integration with the web app using WordPress as backend for all the data. WordPress helped in putting together the web app quickly and then Mobile iOS and Android apps were integrated via this plugin. There were some app specific customized methods which are not included but rest have been made generic for community usage.
My other JSON API Auth plugin has also been integrated with this plugin from version 1.1 because most endpoints required user authentication via cookie for data update.
Pro Version – JSON API User Plus
A pro version of this plugin, JSON API User Plus, is available here http://www.parorrey.com/solutions/json-api-user-plus/ that supports BuddyPress Messages component, BuddyPress avatar upload, BuddyPress Extended Profile, BuddyPress Groups, BuddyPress Friends, BuddyPress Activity, BuddyPress Notifications, BuddyPres Settings and other BuddyPress related functions to integrate BuddyPress features in your mobile app via REST api.
JSON API User Plus includes API key which protects and restricts the endpoint calls. This key can be updated from Settings > User Plus options page. Your app must include this key with every call to get the data from REST API. Please see documentation for calling endpoints examples for ‘JSON API User Plus’.

To add custom fields for user profile, send ‘custom_fields’ named associative array, populated with standard ‘meta_key’ as index and ‘meta_value’ as its value. For example, you need to add address and phone for any user, populate custom_fields[address] index with address value and custom_fields[phone] with hpone value.
You can add any number of custom fields. These are stored as meta_key and meta_value in user_meta WordPress table. You can access these values in WordPress using get_user_meta() fucntion.
