All additional endpoints are under the `wp-site-monitor/v1/` namespace.
e.g. `https://example.com/wp-json/wp-site-monitor/v1/wp-version`

## Additional endpoints
- `wp-version` returns the current version of wordpress as a string.

Example output: `"4.9.2"`
- `plugins` returns a JSON object listing installed plugins with the plugin details.

Example output:
```json
{
"wp-super-cache/wp-cache.php": {
"Name": "WP Super Cache",
"PluginURI": "https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-super-cache/",

## Frequently Asked Questions
### How does authentication work with this plugin?
Because this plugin just extends the official REST API, you can use any authentication method the REST API supports.
You may want to use a another plugin to add extra authentication methods such as
[WordPress REST API – OAuth 1.0a Server](https://wordpress.org/plugins/rest-api-oauth1/) or
[JWT Authentication for WP REST API](https://wordpress.org/plugins/jwt-authentication-for-wp-rest-api/)
