WooCommerce: an alternative tunnel for WAF-blocked stores

We improved the Kiero OMS Integration plugin for WooCommerce stores whose WAF blocks standard requests to /wp-json/.

How does it work?

The plugin exposes an alternative endpoint on the store. Kiero OMS sends the request to this tunnel, and WordPress forwards it to the correct WooCommerce endpoint.

The tunnel accepts the methods used by the integration, including GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, and DELETE. It also validates JSON request bodies.

When should you use it?

Use this option when the WooCommerce integration card reports that the server or WAF blocks direct API access. Download the plugin from the integration settings, install it in WordPress, and run the connection test again.

Good to know

Test the plugin on the actual store before relying on it in production: check activation, endpoint forwarding, and API-key permissions. Back up the store settings before installation.
