Supported Features and Limitations

Alpha: Building apps with AI is currently in alpha. This feature is subject to change and may have bugs, issues, and limitations. We're actively improving it based on your feedback.

When you build apps with AI, the AI agent generates specific types of extensions and supports various APIs and features. Below is a list of supported and unsupported features.

Note: Additional features may be supported in future updates.

Supported features

The AI assistant can automatically generate the following features when you build apps with AI.

Extensions

Extensions add functionality to Wix sites or dashboards. The following extension types are supported:

  • Dashboard pages: Administrative pages you can add to the dashboard of a site. The AI assistant generates dashboard pages using Auto Patterns.
  • Custom element widgets: App widgets created from custom HTML tags that you define. Editor setup panels aren't currently supported. Configure widgets through a dashboard page instead.
  • Embedded scripts: Extensions that inject HTML code fragments into the DOM of a site. Unlike other extensions, embedded scripts aren't fully configured by default during app installation and require an extra step to embed the code fragment.
  • HTTP endpoints: Custom API endpoints you can create to serve any kind of data, generate files, or build API routes.
  • Events: Extensions that subscribe your app to events so your app can run code when specific conditions are met. Only Stores and eCommerce are supported.
  • Service plugins: A set of APIs defined by Wix that you can use to enable your app to inject custom logic into existing app flows or to introduce entirely new flows to Wix sites. Only Stores and eCommerce are supported.
  • Data Collections: Extensions that add custom data structures and collections to Wix sites.

Note: App extensions are visible in the App Dashboard only after releasing the app.

Limitations

The following features aren't supported by the AI assistant. You can implement some of these features manually using the Wix CLI. To see which extension types are supported, see About Extensions in the Wix CLI.

Extensions

The following extension types aren't supported:

APIs

All Wix APIs are supported except for Stores Catalog V1.

The AI assistant uses Stores Catalog V3 APIs by default. However, some Wix sites still use Stores Catalog V1 APIs. To publish your app to the Wix App Market, make sure it works with both Stores Catalog V3 and Stores Catalog V1 sites. Learn how to manually implement Stores Catalog V1 support.

Other limitations

  • The Code tab doesn't work in Safari.
  • Collaborators aren't supported yet.
  • AI-based iterations, such as editing existing extensions or adding new ones, aren't fully stable yet and might fail. You can always fix or complete these iterations manually in the code.
