Ticket #6061, comment 4
initial v1 2 2 > Don't use it for something it's not designed for, as all WordPress.org API endpoints are only intended on being used by WordPress or WordPress.org, they're not intended on being "public data API's", and may change their output format to suit requirements at any time. 3 3 4 This answer is quite unexpected. I've got quitea few follow up questions:4 This answer is quite unexpected. I've got a few follow up questions: 5 5 - https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress.org_API is publicly accessible, there is no warning that is shouldn't be used, nor any explanation on what its intended purpose is. Why is that? 6 6 - after a quick search through the support forum, I'm apparently not the first one to have stumbled upon this "public API" problem (e.g. https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-the-wordpress-org-api/). Already at the time a suggestion was made to add a warning to the very same documentation, yet one of your colleagues refused to do so. Why is the WordPress.org team so keen on repeatedly misleading users?
