Our analysis
AI-assistedWP REST API – Pure Taxonomies is a WordPress plugin that enhances the default JSON response of the REST API by including detailed taxonomy information. With this plugin, you can access all available taxonomy data, such as term ID, name, slug, and more, in a new 'pure_taxonomies' field. This is useful for developers working with custom taxonomies and post types who need comprehensive taxonomy details without making additional requests.

From the developer
Andrew MAGIK's own description of WP REST API, lightly tidied.
Now you have no need to make additional requests to get taxonomy info (term_id, name, slug, term_group, term_taxonomy_id, taxonomy, description, parent, count, filter) from their id that is available in the default json response.
Now all available taxonomy data is available in ‘pure_taxonomies’ field from your json response. It works for all custom added taxonomies, and for custom post types.
For example in ‘wp-json/wp/v2/posts’ you can find default fields ‘categories’, ‘tags’ and name of custom added taxonomies that contain only its id. With this plugin you can also find new ‘pure_taxonomies’ field that include all available ‘categories’, ‘tags’ and custom taxonomies data.
Before:
{
…
categories: [
3
],
tags: [
2
],
custom_taxonomy_name: [
1
]
…
}
After:
{

pure_taxonomies: {
categories: [
{
term_id: 3,
name: “First category”,
slug: “first-category”,
term_group: 0,
term_taxonomy_id: 3,
taxonomy: “category”,
