Test WooCommerce REST API

I needed to test if the REST API for WooCommerce were still available after adding some restriction to WordPress. I found an article that using some software called Insomnia.

I used the Consumer Key and the Consumer Secret and then enter a URL that would show the WooCommerce orders. The URL was:

https://domainname.com/wp-json/wc/v1/orders

I did get an error message was it was because I hadn’t installed the permanent SSL certificate. I went to the preferences in Insomnia and unchecked validate SSL certificates.
