How to add taxonomy to a post using WP REST API?

Question

I'm using REST API, but I have a taxonomy called Ingredients to my Product custom post type. I can create a Product posting to the endpoing /wp-json/wp/v2/produtos, but how can I attach a custom taxonomy (Ingredient) to it?

Answer 1

You can use the taxonomy name to target it:

...,
ingredient: [121],
....

Where 121 will be the term_id...
