Filters
====
| Filter | Argument(s) |
|-----------|-----------|
| acf/rest_api/id | mixed ( string, integer, boolean ) **$id**
string **$type** πŸ†•
string **$controller** πŸ†• |
| acf/rest_api/key | string **$key**
WP_REST_Request **$request**
string **$type** |
| acf/rest_api/item_permissions/get | boolean **$permission**
WP_REST_Request **$request**
string **$type** |
| acf/rest_api/item_permissions/update | boolean **$permission**
WP_REST_Request **$request**

Basic example of how to use the filters, in this case I will set a new permission to get the fields
```PHP
add_filter( 'acf/rest_api/item_permissions/get', function( $permission ) {
return current_user_can( 'edit_posts' );
} );
```

| acf/rest_api/type | string **$type** |
| acf/rest_api/types | array **$types** |
| acf/rest_api/default_rest_base | boolean **$default**
string **$type** |

Request API version
====
See below how to select the Request API Version.

1. Open the plugins page;
2. Click the settings link under the pluing name ( `ACF to REST API` );
3. Select your version in the `ACF to REST API` session;
4. Click in the button Save changes.

The other alternative is to define the constant `ACF_TO_REST_API_REQUEST_VERSION` in your `wp-config.php`

```PHP
define( 'ACF_TO_REST_API_REQUEST_VERSION', 2 );
```

Field Settings
====
In this version is possible to configure the field options via admin.

The options are enabled using the filters below, by default theses options are disabled.

```PHP
// Enable the option show in rest
add_filter( 'acf/rest_api/field_settings/show_in_rest', '__return_true' );

// Enable the option edit in rest
add_filter( 'acf/rest_api/field_settings/edit_in_rest', '__return_true' );
```

Editing the fields
====
The fields should be sent into the key `fields`.

**Action:** http://localhost/wp-json/acf/v3/posts/1

```HTML


Site:
Save

```

**Action:** http://localhost/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/1

```HTML


Title:

ACF


Site:
Save

```

Use the filter `acf/rest_api/key` to change the key `fields`.

```PHP
add_filter( 'acf/rest_api/key', function( $key, $request, $type ) {
return 'acf_fields';
}, 10, 3 );
```

Now, the fields should be sent into the key `acf_fields`

```HTML


Site:
Save

```
