Fetch Json data from API and instert it as a wordpress page

Question

so I am working with Clickup API, there we have a number of lists we would like to fetch the data from and insert that data as a wordpress post for our website.

I have tested all the API requests with Postman and the data i get back is similar to this, basically would need to fetch the data with "custom fields", but I am not sure how to work it out with PHP, any help would be appreciated.

"custom_fields": [
                {
                    "id": "39ed2191-443e-4d45-84d4-de9eff89cc97",

                        "currency_type": "USD"
                    },
                    "date_created": "1616008796860",

Answer 1

Here's a very abstract description of the possible steps you'll need to take:

1. Fetch the data using wp_remote_request()
2. Parse the data using json_decode()
3. Get all the data you need from the object(-s)
4. Create a post using wp_insert_post()
5. Save all the additional data in the post(-s) meta fields using update_post_meta()
