import { sections } from '@wix/restaurants';
// Import the auth strategy for the relevant access type
// Import the relevant host module if needed

const myWixClient = createClient ({
  modules: { sections },
  // Include the auth strategy and host as relevant
});


async function getSection(sectionId) {
  const response = await myWixClient.sections.getSection(sectionId);
};
```
