I just setup a staging environment to test out the connection between one of my self-hosted sites and wordpress.com. I installed Jetpack and connected the staging site to wordpress.com and I was expecting that my custom post types would be visible and viewable over there. However, not all CPTs came across, and none actually showed any content; I received a continuous loading icon.
Maybe this is still in dev and not fully supported. I have read however that wordpress.com's Calypso admin interface now supports custom post types via the newly integrated rest api in wp core. Is wp-types developing to provide CPT integration through Jetpack? Are there specific settings that I need to make sure are checked within Types' Post Type?
I do run a security plugin, and I have made sure that XML-RPC is available. I have also made sure that the REST API was not being blocked.
Thanks,
Harry
Types has one setting by now for the REST API and that is to find in the Toolset > Post Types > your_post_type > Edit > Options > show_in_rest
The rest of Toolset has no such settings to show the content in the REST.
There is a Plugin that Adriano from OnTheGoSystems developed, but it is notan official plugin of the Toolset.
You can, however, use it as you like:

Now, since the wordpress.com Jetpack connection seems to work with the REST API, I assume this is the hurdle here.
I need to know more about this.
1. Does all that work flawlessly with a manually registered Custom Post Type?

2. If not, what arguments do you change to make it work?
Once I know this, I can suggest improvements in Types, if necessary.
It is new to me that we made some work on Toolset to integrate with jetpack/wordpress.com
Do you have any ticket links where we state this?
I would need to wrap my head around this, as for now, I do not know of any active development done in that direction.
