WP_REST_Server::json_error( string $code, string $message, int $status = null ): string

Retrieves an appropriate error representation in JSON.


Description

Note: This should only be used in WP_REST_Server::serve_request(), as it cannot handle WP_Error internally. All callbacks and other internal methods should instead return a WP_Error with the data set to an array that includes a ‘status’ key, with the value being the HTTP status to send.
