Hello ibradley,
Hope you are well. Based on the documentation at https://imsas.github.io/wpdm-rest-api-docs/#get-all-packages, the categories parameter for filtering packages is documented in the **Query Parameters** table under the “Get All Packages” section.
According to the documentation, the categories parameter expects: **”Send array of category terms. ["Business","Travel"]“**
However, the documentation examples show POST requests with JSON payloads. For GET requests using URL parameters, you’ll need to format the array appropriately. Try these formats:
**(Array notation):**
wp-json/wpdm/v1/packages?categories[]=Documentation
**Important notes:**
– Use the **category name** (e.g., “Documentation”), not the slug (e.g., “documentation”)
– Category names are case-sensitive
– Your original query ?categories=documentation was likely returning all packages because it wasn’t matching the exact category name
To find the exact category names in your system, first query:
wp-json/wpdm/v1/categories
This will show you the correct category names to use in your packages query.
Reference: https://imsas.github.io/wpdm-rest-api-docs/#get-all-packages (see the Query Parameters section)
Please kindly check and let me know.
Thank you and kind regards
