<a href="https://developer.woocommerce.com/2023/10/03/the-legacy-rest-api-will-move-to-a-dedicated-extension-in-woocommerce-9-0/" rel="nofollow ugc">The Legacy REST API will no longer part of WooCommerce as of version 9.0</a>. This plugin restores the full functionality of the removed Legacy REST API code in WooCommerce 9.0 and later versions.
For all intents and purposes, having this plugin installed and active in WooCommerce 9.0 and newer versions is equivalent to enabling the Legacy REST API in WooCommerce 8.9 and older versions (via WooCommerce – Settings – Advanced – Legacy API). All the endpoints work the same way, and existing user keys also continue working.
On the other hand, installing this plugin together with WooCommerce 8.9 or an older version is safe: the plugin detects that the Legacy REST API is still part of WooCommerce and doesn’t initialize itself as to not interfere with the built-in code.
Please note that the Legacy REST API is not compatible with <a href="https://woocommerce.com/document/high-performance-order-storage/" rel="nofollow ugc">High-Performance Order Storage</a>. Upgrading the code that relies on the Legacy REST API to use the current WooCommerce REST API instead is highly recommended.

WooCommerce Legacy REST API


Installed without authorization. Disappointing...

This plugin uses the OAuth 1.0a protocol to allow delegated authorization; that is, to allow applications to access a site using a set of secondary credentials. This allows server administrators to control which applications can access the site, as well as allowing users to control which applications have access to their data.
This plugin only supports WordPress >= 4.4.
The latest stable version is also available from the <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/rest-api-oauth1/" rel="ugc">WordPress Plugin Directory</a>.
<h3>New to OAuth</h3>
We strongly recommend you use an existing OAuth library. You’ll be best off if you understand the authorization process, but leave the actual implementation to well-tested libraries, as there are a lot of edge cases.
Start reading from <a href="docs/introduction/README.md" rel="nofollow ugc">the Introduction</a> to get started!
<h3>For OAuth Veterans</h3>
If you already know how to use OAuth, here’s the lowdown:
<ul>
<li>The plugin uses OAuth 1.0a in</li>
<li>We use the three-legged flow</li>
<li>To find the REST API index, apply the <a href="http://v2.wp-api.org/guide/discovery/" rel="nofollow ugc">API autodiscovery process</a></li>
<li>The endpoints for the OAuth process are available in the REST API index: check for <code>$.authentication.oauth1</code> in the index data.
<ul>
<li>The temporary credentials (request token) endpoint is <code>$.authentication.oauth1.request</code> (typically <code>/oauth1/request</code>)</li>
<li>The authorization endpoint is <code>$.authentication.oauth1.authorize</code> (typically <code>/oauth1/authorize</code>)</li>
<li>The token exchange (access token) endpoint is <code>$.authentication.oauth1.access</code> (typically <code>/oauth1/access</code>)</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Your callback URL must match the registered callback URL for the application in the scheme, authority (user/password) host, port, and path sections. (Subpaths are not allowed.)</li>
<li>The only signature method supported is HMAC-SHA1.</li>
<li>OAuth parameters are supported in the Authorization header, query (GET) parameters, or request body (POST) parameters (if encoded as <code>application/x-www-form-urlencoded</code>). OAuth parameters are not supported in JSON data.</li>
</ul>

WP REST API – OAuth 1.0a Server

Hello, I have made an adapter for Parse Server under Node.js with which you can link the login of any installation of wordpress in Parse Server, for that I have used your plugin, which is the one that gives us access_token and allows us to verify the authenticity Of the user registered in the server.

Worked like a charm!

Really Useful And Good Plugin
