jsonapi_frontend

Route resolution for Drupal JSON:API frontends

jsonapi_frontend adds a reliable “path → resource” router API for headless and hybrid sites. It resolves aliases, redirects, Views pages, language, and access checks so your frontend can fetch the right JSON:API URL every time.

Quick start

composer require drupal/jsonapi_frontend
drush en jsonapi_frontend

Configure at: /admin/config/services/jsonapi-frontend

Resolve paths

GET /jsonapi/resolve?path=/about-us&_format=json

Note: The resolver runs Drupal access checks; restricted/unpublished content resolves as “not found”.

Try it on Vercel (free)

One-click deploy a starter on Vercel. Set DRUPAL_BASE_URL to your Drupal site URL.

• Deploy Next.js starter · Repo
• Deploy Astro starter · Repo

Add-ons (optional)

• jsonapi_frontend_menu — ready-to-render menu tree (active trail +
  resolve hints)
• jsonapi_frontend_webform — keep Webforms Drupal-rendered
  (proxy/redirect safely)
• jsonapi_frontend_layout — Layout Builder support

Requires: Drupal 10/11 + core JSON:API + Path Alias.
