Live CMS item management

The Data API now supports new endpoints dedicated to managing live CMS items. The new live CMS endpoints create a clear separation between staged content (drafts) and published content (live), allowing you to:

  • Access only published content without retrieving draft items
  • Make direct changes to published content
  • Create content that bypasses the draft/staging workflow
  • Manage the live database independently of the editing environment

New endpoints

Changes made through these live endpoints affect only what visitors see on your published site. They don’t affect staged content in the Webflow Designer, which requires separate API calls to the non-live endpoints.
