Wix REST API: setup and what it can do Intermediate

Wix is a website builder with REST APIs for stores, content and contacts. Here's what it can do, what you need, and how to get started without being a programmer.

Before you start

• The Grok Bot app, installed and signed in. New? See where to download it and installing and signing in.
• An account with the service (and, for shipping or selling, a business account).
• Some patience: developer portals look technical, but you only need a few pages.

1. What it is, in plain words

Wix is a website builder with REST APIs for stores, content and contacts. An API (application programming interface) is a doorway that lets one program ask another for information or to do something. New to APIs? Read What is an API? and API keys vs OAuth first.

2. Why you'd want it

A bot could update products, read orders, or manage CMS items. (No-code option: Connecting Wix.)

3. Set it up

1. Create an API key in your Wix account with the permissions you need.
2. Send it along with your site ID on each call.
3. Apps and visitor or member flows use OAuth instead.

4. What it can do

• Wix Stores products and inventory
• eCommerce orders
• CMS (Wix Data) collections and items
• Contacts and other site business data

5. Let your bot help

You don't have to write the code yourself. Tell your bot what you want and point it at the official docs:

Read the official Wix REST API docs and show me, step by step, how to get my first test call working. Ask me for keys with a secure form.

When your bot needs a key or secret, let it ask you for it with a secure form, so the value is masked and isn't written into the chat. Never paste keys or passwords into an ordinary message.
