Remote Data Blocks

Remote Data Blocks is a WordPress plugin that makes it easy to combine content and remote data in the block editor. Easily register blocks that load data from Airtable, Google Sheets, Shopify, GitHub, or any other API. Your data stays in sync. Built-in caching ensures performance and reliability.

Launch the plugin in WordPress Playground and explore. An example API ("Conference Events") is included, or visit Settings > Remote Data Blocks to add your own. Visit the workflows guide to dive in.

Installation

Requirements

PHP 8.1+
WordPress 6.6+

A persistent object cache is not strictly required, but it is highly recommended for optimal performance and to help avoid rate limiting from remote data sources. If your WordPress environment does not provide persistent object cache, the plugin will utilize in-memory (per-request) caching.
