Check a site's WordPress core files against the published checksums.

All hosting endpoints

Authentication

Send an API key as a bearer token. The key must carry the sites.view permission; a key without it is refused with 403, not 404.

This endpoint takes no organisation id. Your key already identifies the organisation it belongs to, and the response is scoped to it.

Try it

Replace anything in angle brackets with your own values, and the key placeholder with a key from your dashboard.

curl -X GET https://api.zinndigital.com/v1/sites/{siteId}/wordpress/checksum \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer zdk_live_…"

Signed in? The API console in your dashboard fills in your real organisation id and your own key, and runs the request against the live API so you can see the actual response. Open this endpoint in the API console

Details

Compares the install's core files with WordPress.org's published checksums and names every file that differs. A modified core file is the classic signature of a compromise, so this is the read behind *"has anything been tampered with"*. `ok` is `true` when nothing differs. `404` for a site with no vendor hosting package. Requires `sites.view`.

Parameters

NameTypeRequiredWhat it is
siteId (path)UuidYesSite ID (UUIDv7).

Response

NameTypeRequiredWhat it is
okbooleanYesWhether nothing differs.
filesstring[]YesThe core files that differ, by path. Empty when `ok` is true. Read from the vendor's path-keyed map, so a file is named rather than merely counted.
