How to Locate Your WordPress REST API URL

To connect your WordPress blog to Magento, locate your WordPress REST API endpoint:

Open your WordPress website URL in a web browser.
Append /wp-json/wp/v2 to your WordPress base site URL (e.g. https://myblog.com/wp-json/wp/v2 or https://mysite.com/blog/wp-json/wp/v2).
Test the URL in your browser address bar; it should display a JSON response listing WordPress posts and routes.
Copy the complete URL string up to /wp/v2.
Enter this URL into the WordPress REST API URL field under Stores > Configuration > Meetanshi > WordPress Integration in Magento Admin.
