About this plugin
Every plugin and theme you install registers REST API endpoints. Most are public by default — including the ones your site never uses.
Unused endpoints are unnecessary exposure. They reveal information about your stack, invite probing, and become liabilities when a vulnerability is discovered in a plugin you forgot to audit.
WPBuoy Endpoint Manager gives you a clear view of every endpoint on your site and a one-click toggle to disable the ones you don’t need.
See your full API surface
Every REST API endpoint from WordPress core, plugins, and themes in one organized view — grouped by namespace, with a count of how many are currently disabled.
Block endpoints instantly
Toggle any endpoint off and it returns a 403. No code, no rules, no guesswork. One click.
Requires an active Pro license.
Preview before you block
Click the preview icon on any static endpoint to fetch its live REST API response in an inline modal — without leaving the admin. Know exactly what you’re disabling before you disable it.
Search and filter your endpoints
Find any endpoint instantly with keyboard search (Ctrl/Cmd+F) and result highlighting. Filter by status, route type, method, or namespace to focus on what matters.
Security logging
Every blocked request is logged with IP address, endpoint, user agent, and timestamp — so you always know what’s being probed. Filter logs by IP, endpoint, or date range. Logs auto-clean after 30 days.
Clean and accessible
Built to WordPress admin standards. Fully keyboard-navigable with screen reader support.
Who it’s for
Agencies hardening client sites. Developers locking down staging environments. Site owners running WooCommerce, membership, or any setup where REST API exposure is a real risk.
