Answer 1

You can get the list of products of specific categories using search criteria concept of rest api.

Below is the url for that .

www.yoururl/rest/V1/products?searchCriteria[filterGroups][0][filters][0][field]=category_id& searchCriteria[filterGroups][0][filters][0][value]=2& searchCriteria[filterGroups][0][filters][0][conditionType]=eq&searchCriteria[sortOrders][0][field]=created_at& searchCriteria[sortOrders][0][direction]=DESC& searchCriteria[pageSize]=10& searchCriteria[currentPage]=1

Here i am getting products which having category id : 2

Here Id 2 is for jacket.

Same way you can pass your category id with the given criteria.

Authorization Header

Remember to inform the Authorization header.
It must contain Bearer + admin token.
The admin token can be obtained with the following request: curl -X POST 'https://YOURMAGENTOURL.com/index.php/rest/V1/integration/admin/token' \ -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \ --data-raw '{ "username": "YOURADMINUSERNAME", "password": "YOURADMINPASS" }'

Answer 2

You can use the dedicated REST API from Magento 2. Your need can be satisfied by calling following URL:

http://yoururl/rest/V1/categories/$categoryId/products
