JSON:API Node Preview
This module adds a `/preview` endpoint to the JSON:API for nodes. This allows you to get a preview of a node's content in JSON:API format by appending `/preview` to the node's JSON:API path. This preview endpoint is not cached and is only accessible to the authenticated user who created the preview.
A module to get node previews in JSON:API.
It adds a new endpoint for all JSON:API resources of type node, adding a
/preview string to the end of the original JSON:API path.
For example:
- Node / Article :
/jsonapi/node/article/{UUID}/preview - Node / Page :
/jsonapi/node/page/{UUID}/preview - etc
That endpoint is compatible with any other JSON:API parameters available
(fields, include, etc).
The expected workflow to make this module work is as following:
- Edit any node and click on "Preview" button
- A new window opens, with a URL like this:
http://example.com/node/preview/1f8b435a-0026-4628-93f3-38ae7353ffbb/full - Grab the UUID (the "8-4-4-4-12" chars, "
1f8b435a-0026-4628-93f3-38ae7353ffbb" in this example) - Execute a request to
/jsonapi/node/article/1f8b435a-0026-4628-93f3-38ae7353ffbb/preview
Being a preview operation, this endpoint:
- is not cached.
- is authenticated, so it is only available to the same authenticated user that created the node preview (please do not open an issue about how to get anonymous access to node previews, since that is a security breach).
You can use any UUID to request the preview endpoint. If that UUID has not been
previewed, or the user making the request has not enough permissions, JSON:API
responds with a 404 error.
