As far as I understand it is not related to specific permissions – Auto Update overall requires that files owner matches user Apache runs under. If that is not the case it falls back to other filesystem methods (FTP, SSH) and so prompts for password. You can define credentials in constants in wp-config.php so you … Read more

Localize the value of a wp_create_nonce(‘wp_rest’) function call. wp_localize_script(‘application’, ‘api’, array( ‘root’ => esc_url_raw(rest_url()), ‘nonce’ => wp_create_nonce(‘wp_rest’) )); This will then be accessible to the window object of the browser which can be … Read more
