I am trying to retrieve data from my own password-protected, free Wordpress.com (not .org) site. The syntax for the API seems pretty simple if the site is not password protected, but there is very little information for novices on how to use the Wordpress.com API with authentication. I am looking to figure out these questions:
- When applying for an individual token without a formal App, what should I put for "Website URL" and "Redirect URL"?
- Once I have my token, how do I make authenticated API requests using R/RCurl?
