It's most likely specific to your environment, and could be caused by your caching system or another plugin.
Could you please test again with PostMan + Authentication using JSON Basic Authentication plugin to see if you could recreate the situation on your side?
We don't support the JSON Basic Authentication plugin. You should instead use this plugin: https://github.com/WP-API/Basic-Auth
Any ideas? Do you get the same results after authenticating as and admin user?
Low and behold, I can reproduce now. Sorry about that. Debugging.

Hi
I have been trying to fetch all the media files from the REST API using restangular, but no matter how I try it fails, so I decided to test the media endpoint via PostMan app and realized that although I can see the media files json object in my browsers when I browse to /wp-json/wp/v2/media but using PostMan or using restangular it always results in an empty array.
The funny part is that during the time I was pulling my hair for getting the media files, the files showed up only once, and after one refresh they were gone forever, this could be a bug in the wp rest plugin.
