convert html entities when using API

use case:
some product described like this in the product feed (generated by our plugin):

<item>
 <id><![CDATA[8596]]></id>
 <brand><![CDATA[L&#039;Outil Parfait]]></brand>
</item>

As can be seen the "brand" value (L'Outil Parfait) is html-escaped (L&#039;Outil Parfait)

when processing this as an file feed, the html_entities filter takes care of that, but:

when using the reindex feature of our magento plugin, our plugin uses php-doofinder to access doofinder's API, and uploads everything again via API. And there's no html_entities filter in that scenario.

I guess our plugin should either doesn't produce html-escaped values, or unescaping then when reading from the magento products database, or taking care of unescaping them before submitting them via API.

Are you sure this is for Magento 1.x? we don't index by API in this module.

Of course I'm not sure. I didn't know this was only magento 1.x, is there any repo for magento 2.x ??
