MainWP API not getting JSON

Hi all,
Recently, I was trying to connect to MainWP Dashboard via API https://mainwp.dev/rest-api/ but for some reason Pabbly is not detecting output as JSON. Doesn't mater if de-select Simple Response, it always showing them as fields. I also tried adding header Content-Type: JSON but nothing.

However, after speaking with Fagun, who kindly asked me to check and was trying to help, I tested with postman.com and output as as JSON so it works okay.

There was similar questions asked on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/193632914749672/search/?q=mainwp but without any answers.

I tried with Manoj Lk Private App but also setup my own API connection to check. And it doesn't matter what I do or click, it never outputs as JSON.

The reason for JSON output is as we want to grab all of the sites, and add them into another system.

Any help is much appreciated.

Hey @FilioTech

Seems like the API response that you are getting might not be in the key-value pair and because of that, the action step is not taking the response in advance format.

Further, the MainWP application wasn't integrated by the Pabbly team, so kindly contact the user who has shared the application with you.

Hi, sorry for the delay! For some reason, not getting email notification upon reply!
This has nothing to do with person creating private integration with MainWP on Pabbly

What I don't understand is, when you follow the exact steps on postman, connection, etc. I am getting JSON output, but with Pabbly output is row based. I've tested as well with my own API setup, always row based.
What you could suggest I should try?

Hey @FilioTech

If you want to capture the API response in the advanced format in JSON array, you need to toggle the "Simple Response" button and then press the "Save & Send Test Request" or "Re-Capture Webhook Response" from the action step & trigger event accordingly.

Hey @FilioTech

We only capture the response as the API sends the data in their format. If they pass the data in JSON format we would have captured it in the array format.

Any other reason why it would not be captured in array format? Somehow postman receive data in JSON but cannot get this in Pabbly?

@FilioTech shared the solution with me. I am adding the same here for someone else facing the same issue.

By default, MainWP does not send the Array in the JSON so the users cannot use Iterator on the items.

Instead, if you do the full call with format=array and full_data=true. The array will be maintained and the iterator can be run on the incoming data which will be an array.

The full API request would look like this yourdashboard.com/wp-json/mainwp/v1/sites/all-sites?consumer_key=ck_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx&consumer_secret=cs_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx&format=array&full_data=true
