When I am querying for posts of a CPT, I get a response of 200 but a return of brackets [].

How can I show all of my CPT post data?

My syntax I am using in the url is: http://mydomain/wp-json/wp/v2/myCPT

• custom-post-types
• rest-api

• Did you set 'show_in_rest' => true, when registering the post type? – czerspalace Commented Jun 14, 2019 at 23:57
• Yes. It is. And if I add an ID to the syntax it will show just that 1 post. But I was trying to get a list. – samjco-com Commented Jun 15, 2019 at 1:07

So I tried everything and every plugin to fix my issue and expose the list CPT data instead of showing brackets [ ].

And the answer is something that might be a bug in Wordpress Rest API.

The problem was I am using custom statuses and none of my posts were assigned as default Wordpress status. After changing the posts to any of the default built-in statuses, it worked. But doesn't work for custom statuses it seems.... at least not with custom statuses created with a plugin called PublishPress.. Perhaps it just doesn't work with custom statuses at all, all-around

Hope this can help someone else!
