Generate an API Key

Generate an API key to grant admin access to your Wix site data.

Generate the API key

Go to the API Keys Manager to create a key that lets an authorized external client access and manage data for all sites in the account or for specific sites you select. As a best practice, give each key access to the narrowest set of sites its integration needs. You can also assign a set of permissions that determine the types of APIs each key can access.

Retrieve a site ID or account ID

When using an API key authentication method, you need to provide either a site ID, your account ID, or both.

• You can extract a site ID from the URL in your browser when accessing the site dashboard. The site ID appears after /dashboard/ in the URL.
• You can retrieve your account ID from the API Keys Manager in your account settings.
