WordPress Troubleshooting MySQL API Development API Integration REST API
My WordPress site doesnt accept REST calls from n8n. Every POST request I send to /wp-json/wp/v2/posts with my administrator credentials is rejected with the following response: `{ "code": "rest_cannot_create", "message": "Sorry, you are not allowed to create posts as this user.", "data": { "status": 401 } }` No plugins or themes were updated before this occurred, and the account in question is a full Administrator. I need a WordPress-savvy developer who can: • Trace why the REST endpoint believes the admin lacks create permissions. • Adjust any capability, role, or permission settings that may have been corrupted. • Prove success by requesting me to send a test through n8n Once the 401 is gone and posts flow through normally, the job is done.
