https://developer.wordpress.org/rest-api/using-the-rest-api/authentication/
2.a) Application Passwords:
To learn more about Basic Authentication, visits https://developer.wordpress.org/rest-api/using-the-rest-api/authentication/#basic-authentication-with-application-passwords
Create An App Password
Go to your frontend Dashboard.
Navigate to the Account section.
In the "App name " field, enter a descriptive name for the application you'll be using this password with.

Go to Account and select Access Token .
Enter your password and click "Create a token " button.
Remember to save the generated token in a safe place, as it will not be shown again.
