WordPress Site Tools

With the tools endpoint, you can perform actions on sites like:

• Clear site cache.
• Restart PHP.
• Update PHP
• Get and update a list of denied IP addresses.

You can obtain the environment_id using the GET request with the WordPress Site Environments endpoint.

The environment_id is also shown after the site_id in the URL in MyKinsta when you access the environment, for example in the URL https://my.kinsta.com/sites/details/fbab4927-e354-4044-b226-29ac0fbd20ca/c84ce214-69b9-4a32-8e67-880672cf1d38?idCompany=bdd25d71-5706-4890-870f-1adda17c505d:

• The site_id is fbab4927-e354-4044-b226-29ac0fbd20ca
• The environment_id is c84ce214-69b9-4a32-8e67-880672cf1d38
• The company_id is bdd25d71-5706-4890-870f-1adda17c505d

Most of these tool endpoints will trigger longer tasks (from a few seconds to around a minute) on your environments. This is why they provide 202 Accepted response, with an operation_id in the body. To check the progress, you can use the /operations endpoint.
