The WordPress REST `media` resource — the site's image and document library, including product photography and press assets. Read access is anonymous; uploads require authentication.

title: Perfect Day Content API (media)
version: wp/v2
description: Public content API for perfectday.com, served by the WordPress REST API `wp/v2` namespace. Perfect Day is a
precision-fermentation food-ingredient company and publishes no product/developer API; this is the one machine-readable
surface it operates. Read operations on this resource were verified to respond anonymously (HTTP 200) on 2026-08-02; write
operations require authentication (WordPress application passwords). This document was DERIVED by the API Evangelist enrichment
pipeline from the route metadata the server itself publishes at https://perfectday.com/wp-json/wp/v2 — no operations,
parameters, enums or defaults were invented.
