Hi

I am trying to view and update custom fields via REST API. I am able to view and update custom taxonomies with your help from this ticket:

https://toolset.com/forums/topic/rest-api-update-custom-posts/

add_filter('wpcf_taxonomy_data', 'add_rest_api_func', 10, 3);
function add_rest_api_func($data, $taxonomy, $object_types){
if(in_array($taxonomy, array('test-tax1', 'test-tax2'))){
$data['show_in_rest'] = 1;
}
return $data;
}

Can someone please help me updating custom fields via REST API?

Thanks

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Well - this is pure custom programming and that is beyond the scope of our support policy.

Still I have few articles to share with you which you can use as reference:

Can inclusion of custom meta in REST feeds also be raised as a feature request?

Minimally, outputting the fields in unserialized format would be an appreciated addition. Further, the ability to select output formatting of certain field types (e.g. dates) would be nice.
