wordpress-api（WordPress API 搜索）

WordPress.com

Access the WordPress.com REST API with managed OAuth authentication. Create and manage posts, pages, and site content on WordPress.com hosted sites.

Quick Start

# List posts from a site
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/wordpress/rest/v1.1/sites/{site_id}/posts?number=10')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Base URL

https://api.maton.ai/wordpress/rest/v1.1/{endpoint}

Maton proxies requests to public-api.wordpress.com and automatically injects your OAuth token.

Note: WordPress.com uses the REST v1.1 API. Site-specific endpoints use the pattern /sites/{site_id_or_domain}/{resource}.

Authentication

All requests require the Maton API key in the Authorization header:

Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY

Environment Variable: Set your API key as MATON_API_KEY:

export MATON_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"

Getting Your API Key

1. Sign in or create an account at maton.ai
2. Go to maton.ai/settings
3. Copy your API key

Connection Management

Manage your WordPress.com OAuth connections at https://api.maton.ai.

List Connections

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/connections?app=wordpress&status=ACTIVE')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Create Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
data = json.dumps({'app': 'wordpress'}).encode()
req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/connections', data=data, method='POST')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Get Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Response:

{
  "connection": {
    "connection_id": "{connection_id}",
    "status": "ACTIVE",
    "creation_time": "2026-02-10T07:46:26.908898Z",
    "last_updated_time": "2026-02-10T07:49:33.440422Z",
    "url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=...",
    "app": "wordpress",
    "metadata": {}
  }
}

Open the returned url in a browser to complete OAuth authorization.

Delete Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}', method='DELETE')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Specifying Connection

If you have multiple WordPress.com connections, specify which one to use with the Maton-Connection header:

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/wordpress/rest/v1.1/sites/{site_id}/posts')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Maton-Connection', '{connection_id}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

If you have multiple connections, always include this header to ensure requests go to the intended account.

Security & Permissions

• Access is scoped to posts, pages, sites, and content within the connected WordPress.com account.
• All write operations require explicit user approval. Before executing any create, update, or delete call, confirm the target resource and intended effect with the user.

Pagination

WordPress.com uses cursor-based pagination with page_handle:

import os
import requests

headers = {
    'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}'
}

# Initial request
response = requests.get(
    'https://api.maton.ai/wordpress/rest/v1.1/sites/{site}/posts',
    headers=headers,
    params={'number': 20}
)
result = response.json()
all_posts = result['posts']

# Continue with page_handle
while result.get('meta', {}).get('next_page'):
    response = requests.get(
        'https://api.maton.ai/wordpress/rest/v1.1/sites/{site}/posts',
        headers=headers,
        params={'number': 20, 'page_handle': result['meta']['next_page']}
    )
    result = response.json()
    all_posts.extend(result['posts'])

print(f"Total posts: {len(all_posts)}")

Alternatively, use offset for simple pagination:

GET /wordpress/rest/v1.1/sites/{site}/posts?number=20&offset=20

Code Examples

JavaScript

const response = await fetch(
  'https://api.maton.ai/wordpress/rest/v1.1/sites/{site}/posts?number=10',
  {
    headers: {
      'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}`
    }
  }
);
const data = await response.json();
console.log(`Found ${data.found} posts`);

Python

import os
import requests

response = requests.get(
    'https://api.maton.ai/wordpress/rest/v1.1/sites/{site}/posts',
    headers={'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}'},
    params={'number': 10, 'status': 'publish'}
)
data = response.json()
print(f"Found {data['found']} posts")

Python (Create Post)

import os
import requests

response = requests.post(
    'https://api.maton.ai/wordpress/rest/v1.1/sites/{site}/posts/new',
    headers={
        'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}',
        'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    },
    json={
        'title': 'My New Post',
        'content': '<p>Hello World!</p>',
        'status': 'draft',
        'categories': 'news',
        'tags': 'hello, first-post'
    }
)
post = response.json()
print(f"Created post ID: {post['ID']}")

Notes

• WordPress.com API uses REST v1.1 (not v2)
• Site identifiers can be numeric IDs or domain names
• POST requests to /posts/{id} update the post (not PUT/PATCH)
• DELETE uses POST to /posts/{id}/delete (not HTTP DELETE)
• Categories and tags are created automatically when referenced in posts
• Date/time values are in ISO 8601 format
• All content is HTML-formatted
• IMPORTANT: When piping curl output to jq or other commands, environment variables like $MATON_API_KEY may not expand correctly in some shell environments

Error Handling

Error responses include details:

{
  "error": "unauthorized",
  "message": "User cannot view users for specified site"
}

Troubleshooting: API Key Issues

1. Check that the MATON_API_KEY environment variable is set:

echo $MATON_API_KEY

1. Verify the API key is valid by listing connections:

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/connections')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Troubleshooting: Invalid App Name

1. Ensure your URL path starts with wordpress. For example:

• Correct: https://api.maton.ai/wordpress/rest/v1.1/sites/{site_id}/posts
• Incorrect: https://api.maton.ai/rest/v1.1/sites/{site_id}/posts
