is_protected_endpoint WordPress Filter Hook
The is_protected_endpoint Wordpress hook allows developers to protect certain API endpoints from being accessed by unauthorized users. This is useful for ensuring that sensitive data is not exposed to potential attackers. By using this hook, developers can ensure that only authorized users can access the protected API endpoints.
