'methods' => 'GET',
'callback' => 'custom_api_get_all_posts_callback'
));
}

// Initialize the array that will receive the posts' data.
$posts_data = array();
// Receive and set the page parameter from the $request for pagination purposes
$paged = $request->get_param( 'page' );
$paged = ( isset( $paged ) || ! ( empty( $paged ) ) ) ? $paged : 1;
// Get the posts using the 'post' and 'news' post types
