What's going wrong
Owners setting up a fresh WooCommerce store find that the legacy REST API is switched on and greyed out, and this plugin gives no way to turn it off. One owner asked for a working method and got no clear answer. Stores that do not use the legacy API still carry an open access point they did not choose. Security-minded store owners and agencies doing hardening work would benefit from a tool that finds unused legacy API endpoints and disables them safely, with a report showing what changed and what still depends on the API.
