MemberPress Developer Tools REST API
REST API exposed by the MemberPress Developer Tools add-on on the site owner's own WordPress installation, under the WordPress REST namespace mp/v1. Covers members, memberships, transactions, subscriptions, groups, rules, coupons, reminders and the event log, plus webhook subscribe/unsubscribe. Authenticated with a Developer Tools API key sent in the MEMBERPRESS-API-KEY header (the documentation repository and Postman collection send the same key in the Authorization header), or as a logged-in WordPress user holding the remove_users capability. MemberPress is self-hosted, so the base URL is always the customer's own site.
