Cant access request params on rest endpoint

Replies: 0

Hi,

I have set up a rest endpoint using the following code in a custom plugin however when I try to access the parameters the process is somehow terminated and the email is never sent. I cant find anything in the error logs to indicate what is happening.

add_action( 'rest_api_init', function () {
	register_rest_route( 'pp-subscribe', '/subscribe', array(
		'methods'  => 'POST',
		'callback' => 'pp_subscribe'
	));
});

function pp_subscribe( WP_REST_Request $request ){
	$email = $request->get_param('email');
	wp_mail( 'email@address.com', 'Subscribe Test', $email );
}

If I do the following:

add_action( 'rest_api_init', function () {
	register_rest_route( 'pp-subscribe', '/subscribe', array(
		'methods'  => 'POST',
		'callback' => 'pp_subscribe'
	));
});

function pp_subscribe( WP_REST_Request $request ){
	$email = print_r( $request , true );
	wp_mail( 'email@address.com', 'Subscribe Test', $email );
}

I can see the parameters in the request object so they are being posted correctly.

Does anyone know why this is occurring?

Thanks.
