Returns:
  • (bool) True if it's a WordPress REST API request, false otherwise.
Defined at:

Description

Determines whether WordPress is currently serving a REST API request.The function relies on the 'REST_REQUEST' global. As such, it only returns true when an actual REST _request_ is being made. It does not return true when a REST endpoint is hit as part of another request, e.g. for preloading a REST response. See {@see} for that purpose. This function should not be called until the {@see 'parse_request'} action, as the constant is only defined then, even for an actual REST request.
