# About the Function Methods API

The Function Methods API lets developers manage the relationship between [functions](https://support.wix.com/en/article/functions-about-functions) and [automations](https://dev.wix.com/docs/api-reference/business-management/automations/introduction.md). Function methods link functions to automations, which define the logic that runs when a function is triggered. Use this API together with other [Wix Functions APIs](https://dev.wix.com/docs/api-reference/business-management/functions/about-wix-functions-apis.md).

With the Function Methods API, you can:

- Connect functions to the actual automation code that executes when the function is triggered.
- Control which automation logic runs for each function.

## Function methods in the Wix Functions ecosystem

It isn't recommended to create a function method using this API. Instead, you can create a function, automation, and a function method that links them together by calling [Create Function Production](https://dev.wix.com/docs/api-reference/business-management/functions/function-productions/create-function-production.md) or [Create Function Builderless Production](https://dev.wix.com/docs/api-reference/business-management/functions/builderless-productions/create-function-builderless-production.md). Learn more about [function creation](https://dev.wix.com/docs/api-reference/business-management/functions/about-function-creation-and-activation.md#quick-creation-and-configuration).
