The API Playground is a public-facing standalone page rendered without the WordPress theme wrapper. It provides a browser-based interface for sending live API requests against your site’s DMSI Advanced API.

URLs:

Important: After activating DMSI Advanced API, you must flush WordPress permalinks before the /api/playground/ URL will resolve. Go to Settings > Permalinks and click Save Changes without changing any settings. This registers the custom rewrite rules the playground requires.

Playground features:

• Endpoint selector — dropdown menu populated from the live OpenAPI spec at /wp-json/dmsi-api/v1/docs/openapi.json
• Auto-generated form fields — path parameters, query parameters, and request body fields are generated automatically from the endpoint schema
• Authentication configuration — enter an API key once per session; the key is stored in sessionStorage and is not persisted across browser sessions
• Send Request button — executes the request and displays the formatted JSON response, HTTP status code, and response headers
• Request history — the last 10 requests for the session are stored in localStorage and can be replayed
• Saved requests — mark any request as a favourite to persist it in localStorage for future sessions
• Copy cURL — generates and copies the equivalent cURL command for the current request
• Export as code — generates ready-to-paste code snippets in PHP, JavaScript, and Python

Access control:

The public playground page at yoursite.com/api/playground/ is accessible without WordPress authentication. Any API requests made through the playground use the API key entered in the authentication field — the playground itself does not confer any API access.
